I had your ‘past’ list on the guide and just tried to remember which were and weren’t with a bit of cross-checking with the ones I’ve reviewed for my blog (which has been mainly history-set stories). I’m sure I’ve missed a few, though.

The Nine-Day Queen is so good!
I discounted it due to the extensive use of time travel - and the robot from the publishing company.
