Overview: Margaret Redfern has been interested in plant galls for most of her adult life. After graduating in 1963, she studied part-time for higher degrees while teaching natural history and ecology to sixth formers, undergraduates and adult amateurs, first for the Field Studies Council and later at Portsmouth, Birmingham and Sheffield Universities. Her MSc research involved the natural history of thistle galls, and her PhD covered a population study of the yew gall midge. This research became a long-term project lasting forty years, forming the longest continuous data set on a gall insect, and probably on any insect, anywhere in the world. She continues to teach degree students at Sheffield University and to investigate the natural history of galls. She has published several books and papers, all of them on galls.

The Storyteller’s Granddaughter:
A gripping 13th-century adventure, ranging across Europe from the near East to the far West of Wales… Sophia is disguised as a young male – a necessary lie if she’s to survive the journey ahead of her. When her herbalist grandmother dies, leaving the girl to an uncertain future, Sophia takes to the Spice Road in search of her legendary grandfather, Will, the foreign storyteller – and the attractive trader she believes might help her find him. Between them lies a way fraught with danger, not the least of which is a band of slavers out for her blood. It takes all of her skill as horsewoman and dissembler to evade capture and still she remains one step behind her quarry. But the tales of heroes and villains, slavers and songsters draw her on, until finally, her grandmother’s legacy brings hope in sight and the chance of welcome to a new home, her own people.
