Let’s take a look at some of our Grand Prize Winners and Discover your next great read!
If Someday Comes By David Calloway
This is the true story of my Great-Grandfather George Calloway, a slave in Cleveland, Tennessee, before and during the Civil War. It is written as historical fiction, based on George’s life, and stories I heard growing up. It is a tale of determination, perseverance, and achievement.
George protected his family through war, famine, and plague; he risked his life repeatedly to protect his owner’s family, and thus his own wife and children.
More fact than fiction, George’s story has also been my journey, grappling with the humiliation of slavery; sorting through the many myths and false modern-day narratives, and discovering a long lost relative, I found that to understand America, you must first understand the Civil War. George was then, and remains, a hero of our family.
Winner, the 2023 Phillis Wheatley Historical Fiction Prize
Grand Prize Winner, 2023 Goethe award for Historical Fiction
Winner, The 2023 Next Generation Indie Book Awards African American Fiction Award
Award-winning Irish author Orna Ross has created a volume comprising the first two novels of The Irish Trilogy, drawing from her Irish birth and upbringing for a special grasp of the country’s history, how its wars and political strivings have affected its people directly, personally, over multiple generations.
Her two books take on a span of time rooted in the early 1920s and delve deeply into the interlocking fate of the extended family and ancestry of Jo Devereux. Jo, the book’s central narrator, leaves Ireland in her twenties, only returning in her forties in 1995 when she learns that her mother is near death.
The journey back will draw her into the family’s complex relationships, and reacquaint her with Rory, her former, and perhaps only, true love.
In Linda Ulleseit’s novel The Aloha Spirit, we meet the plucky heroine, Dolores, as her father leaves her.
“Dolores’s father deemed her useless when she was seven. Neither he nor her older brother, Pablo, ever said that, but every detail of their leaving told her so. Papa had tried to explain the Hawaiian custom of hānai to her. All she understood was the giving away, leaving her to live with a family not her own.”
Her story starts in 1922; the place, multi-ethnic, multilingual Hawaii. Papa, a sugar cane cutter from Spain who worked in Hawaii, decides to take his son Pablo with him to seek his fortune in California. His wife died five years earlier. He leaves 7-year-old Dolores with a large family on Oahu in an arrangement called hānai, an informal adoption. Dolores doesn’t know the family well. She feels abandoned, with no idea when or if her father will send for her or return.
Peccadillo At The Palace: An Annie Oakley Mystery By Kari Bovee
Kari Bovée’s Peccadillo at the Palace, the second book in the Annie Oakley Mystery series, is a historical, mystery thriller extraordinaire. Fans of both genres will thrill at Bovée’s complex plot that keeps us guessing from its action-packed beginning to the satisfying reveal at the end.
The book opens with the Honorable Colonel Buffalo Bill Cody’s Wild West Show to England on a voyage to perform for Queen Victoria. They are not on the high seas long, when Annie’s beloved horse, Buck, jumps overboard. Her husband and the Queen’s loyal servant, Mr. Bhakta, jump in to save the horse, or was Mr. Bhakta already dead before he reached the water? Thus, begins the mystery of who killed Mr. Bhakta, leaving all to wonder, is the Queen safe?
Someone wanted the Queen’s man dead, and he is, but was it a matter of racism, intrigue, or an accident? Annie’s search for clues points her in several directions, but is it the doctor, or the woman dressed in rags with the posh accent, or the crass American businessman and his floozy wife? All have motive. Even Annie’s husband has motive with his Irish background and ties to the Fenians and the Irish Republican Army (IRA).
The Lost Years of Billy Battles By Ronald E. Yates
(2018 Overall Grand Prize Winner)
For those not familiar with the series, Yates presents his books as works of “faction,” a story “based in part on fact” but also “augmented by narrative fiction.” The protagonist, William Fitzroy Raglan Battles, born in Kansas in 1860, lives a full 100 years and takes part in some of the most significant events of his time. He encounters key figures of the day (Bat Masterson, Wyatt Earp, President Wilson, Francisco “Pancho” Villa, among others), gives us their backstories, and quietly appraises them.
Yates, a journalist with a keen eye for nuance and subtlety, has created a protagonist with superb critical thinking skills. William, a journalist, and occasional soldier examines people and transactions from every angle. Just as at ease in a Kansas saloon as he is at the captain’s table on a grand ocean liner on the Pacific, Billy Battles is also ruthlessly honest about his shortcomings and feels tremendous guilt when he acts impulsively or inadvertently causes harm to others. Yates has crafted a fully human character who is easy to admire, perhaps because he is admirably cognizant of his own flaws.
I’ve begun few books as eagerly as I did this one. Having read the first two volumes of Ronald E. Yates’ extraordinary trilogy, Finding Billy Battles, I couldn’t wait to continue his story in the final volume, The Lost Years of Billy Battles. The third installment lived up to the exceedingly high standard set in the first two volumes. Billy Battles is as dear and fascinating a literary friend as I have ever encountered. I learned much about American and international history, and you will too if you read any or all of the books. Each is an independent work, but if read in relation to the others, the reader experiences that all too rare sense of complete transport to another world, one fully realized in these pages because the storytelling is so skillful and thoroughly captivating. Trust me; you’ll want to read all three volumes.

Are you a Chanticleer Author who has some good news to share? Let us know! We’re always looking for a reason to crow about Chanticleerians! Here are some recent achievements from our authors:
Submissions Deadline for the 2024 Goethe Book Awards for Post-1750s Historical Fiction is July 31st!
Named after Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749-1832), Considered one of the most influential writers in the German Language, The Goethe Award covers Historical Fiction from the Time Period of His lifetime and afterwards, 1750-20th Century.
Why do we like Johann Wolfgang von Goethe so very much? It’s simple! He’s the guy who wrapped up everything we believe in with this simple sentence:
“Whatever you can do or dream, you can begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.”– Goethe
In his lifetime, he saw the beginning of the Industrial Revolution in 1750 through Mary Shelley’s publishing of Frankenstein in 1818 – and everything in between! Check out the list of what happened during those nearly seventy decades at the end of this post – you will be A-MAZED!
The CIBAs Levels of Achievements. Books are promoted each time they advance!
As you may have noticed, some of the Goethe Awards categories extend even a little beyond our chosen Time Period. Lets take a look!
The Georgian Era and Regency covers the reigns of four King Georges of Great Britain.
A very handsome King George I
While the period starts in 1714 when the German King George I began his Reign, we don’t get into the 1750s until George III began his reign in 1760. You may have seen a version of his early reign in the recent Netflix show and Bridgerton spinoff Queen Charlotte, or as a character in the award-winning Broadway musical Hamilton.
Corey Mylchreest as Young King George in Bridgerton.
George IVs reign is more often called the Regency, as he was acting as Prince Regent from 1811 until his father’s death in 1820, and he continued as king until his own death in 1830.
At which point we get to the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Queen Victoria took the throne in 1832 until her death in 1901, and the Edwardian covers her sons reign in the early 1900s until WW1.
This award division covers time periods anywhere from the American Revolution, the Industrial Revolution beginning in the late 1700s, and can go all the way to the Dust Bowl of the 1930s. American, European and The Rest of the World are all covered. (See the list of 27 Events that Happened During Goethe’s Lifetime at the end of this post.)
Note: While the Goethe Awards categories have some leeway, the question we often return to when discussing with authors who have work on the edge of this time period is “does it mostly take place here?” and “does it fit with the feel and style of Late Historical genres?”
There are three other historical divisions in addition to the Goethe Awards:
Theater Director of Frankfurt for decades, Playwright, Scientist, Novelist, Politician and more. One of his best works is a posthumously published play named Faust.
Faust is a German legend based on a real man, Renaissance alchemist and astrologer Johann Georg Faust. Supposedly selling his soul to the Devil for power and knowledge, his is a story that has been told many times over. As plays by Goethe, Christopher Marlowe (Although some believe Marlowe’s was actually written by his friend William Shakespeare), and Gertrude Stein.
The legend of Faust continues today as a short story by Washington Irving, in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Grey, one of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld novels, and an inspiration behind Queen’s hit song, Bohemian Rhapsody.
Goethe’s own works inspired many things, musical pieces from Beethoven (who rather admired Goethe), Schubert and Liszt, and multiple films, including one by Nosferatu director FW Murnau.
Goethe in general was a fascinating person. Meeting some of the most famous people of his time, Like a meeting with Napoleon in 1808 where Napoleon revealed one of his favorite books to be Goethe’s Sorrows of Young Werther. And even though he rather disliked the Romanticism movement, Romantic artists and writers are the people he influenced the most.
