I have greatly enjoyed all your books that I have read to date (the Saxon and Grail Quest series) and I am quite enjoying The Fort at the moment. I very much value the accuracy of your included history and that is why I have a question. More than once in the current book you use the derogatory “pillow-biter”. In my research this appears to be a 20th century reference growing out of the John Jeffery Thorpe scandal. Am I wrong? Is this a term used in 18th century? And, if so, did it have the same meaning? Thank you for all of your work!
