Crowvus is a small company, and there is no legal requirement for us to produce an annual report. That aside, it's both beneficial and gratifying to recap the year and revisit our aims and goals. It's gratifying because you can celebrate the parts that you got right through the year. And it is so important to take a step back and look at your achievements. In 2025, we sold a record number of books, built the newsletter to a surprising number of subscribers (if you'd like to subscribe to our monthly newsletter, then head over here !) and we had a phenomenal number of entries for the Crowvus Ghost Story Competition.

It is my absolute pleasure to share this New Release with you! Eight members of the Historical Writers Forum were challenged to answer that niggling question all history-lovers ponder over:

All made very different choices, culminating in an eclectic mix of Alternate Endings. So, let's meet the book...
We all know the past is the past, but what if you could change history?
We asked eight historical authors to set aside the facts and rewrite the history they love. The results couldn’t be more tantalizing.
- What if Julius Caesar never conquered Gaul?
- What if Arthur Tudor lived and his little brother never became King Henry VIII?
- What if Abigail Adams persuaded the Continental Congress in 1776 to give women the right to vote and to own property?
Dive in to our collection of eight short stories as we explore the alternate endings of events set in ancient Rome, Britain, the United States, and France.
An anthology of the Historical Writers Forum.
Now, let's meet the authors
