Developments in the New Year: 2011

Anyone who's been following our social networks has already heard the news. ZOVA Books has signed two bestselling authors for the coming year.

We've been working with Anna Lee Waldo, author of the bestselling phenomenon Sacajawea, for several months now (all on the sly, of course). Anna Lee is bringing us a new epic historical piece on the discovery of the New World by Welsh hero and explorer, Madoc, a generation prior to the voyage of Columbus. Based on real legends still held strong both among the Welsh and in the American South, the novel challenges the traditional narrative of early American history while delving into the fascinating cultural remnants of early American people groups. We are thrilled to be a part of this new publishing endeavor, and look forward to the day we can share this beautiful masterpiece with you.


Most recently, we've met with the Academy Award winning writer of the novel and screenplay Dances With Wolves, Michael Blake. This week, we'll be releasing the first e-book edition of the historical novel that rocked the bestseller lists about 20 years ago. The timing couldn't be more appropriate, as this week sees the release of the 20th anniversary blu-ray of the epic film. We are delighted to be working with Michael, and are excited to share with you his upcoming work in the coming months.

There's more in store for ZOVA readers, so keep your eyes open for the other unspoken developments we've got up our sleeves in the next few weeks. We love what we do, and we do it all for you!
