With so many new faces here, we thought it appropriate to introduce ourselves again!

We are Brad & Kathleen Charon.  We both LOVE history and traveling and always wanted to share that love with other people.  This is how our company, Author Fan Travel was born.  

It all started, one day, after a string of very inspiring events, when we met best-selling author, Steve Berry and his wife; publisher, Liz Berry. From that day to this, our lives have not been the same.  We have done some amazing tours with Steve, centered around several of his novels.  
 
Our love of history has encouraged us to meet and provide tours with our favorite British historians/authors as well.  Amazing people like Dan Jones, Lucy Worsley, Suzannah Lipscomb, Helen Castor, Owen Emmerson, Nicola Tallis, & Kate McCaffrey, among others!
 
Meeting and traveling with such incredible authors and all of their wonderful fans has enriched our lives so much.  We look forward to more adventures with them.  We are certain that you will love them too and we look forward to you joining us soon!

Alaska may not belong to the United States? Luke Daniels is on the hunt for a lost document that may prove just that. Along the way he’s thwarted by treasonous Americans and dangerous Russians, everything leading to a deadly confrontation— all thanks to the Judas Kiss.

We had a ball at York Grand Opera House!

What a tremendous crowd had amassed for our first show this autumn of TO KILL A QUEEN! Thank you to all who came, who laughed, who lined up in that long queue to get books signed and who have been in touch to say how much they enjoyed it. We did too!

Next stop, Edinburgh!

We are so excited to have Dr. Helen Castor host our Eleanor of Aquitaine tour in April 2027! She is renowned historian of medieval and Tudor England, is the author of acclaimed works such as Blood & Roses, She-Wolves, and Joan of Arc, and has presented BBC and Channel 4 documentaries, including adaptations of her books. She is a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge, and was a 2022 Booker Prize judge.

Dr. Castor will join our tour each day as we follow our local guides to expand our understanding of Eleanor of Aquitaine, traveling through Eleanor’s footsteps in Paris, Angers, Chinon, Fontevraud, and Poitiers.

From Eleanor’s ancestral southern strongholds to the soaring Gothic masterpieces of Paris, this curated route through France brings the rivalries, romances, and architectural revolutions of the Middle Ages vividly to life.
