It's actually VERY interesting. Do you know that if it were not for the beautiful Slovak castles, Europe might have fallen to the Mongols? Or the Turks?
My novel follows a Slovak family from the Dark Ages through the great migration to America. They start out as captives of the Avars, who lived in a mighty fortress just south of the Danube called the "Ring". They escape and become subjects of Charlemagne, the Great Moravian Empire, the Magyars and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. They come in contact with Crusaders, Hussites, hoards of Kings and Lords. They fight for most of them, often in defeat. They work hard. They build a castle. They change their religion. They rebel.
To read about their fascinating story, check out my book: Slovakland.
