Praise for South of Sepharad 

South of Sepharad is an epic, historical novel which brings readers directly into the lives of 15th century Jews during their expulsion from Granada, Spain.

– John W. Jarrett, Author of The Dark Prairie

South of Sepharad is an insightful, compelling, and poignant fictional recreation of the trials of displacement and what it meant to be expelled from or forced to leave one’s home. A brilliant achievement!

– Teofilo F. Ruiz, Author of Spain's Centuries of Crisis: 1300 - 1474

Weintraub personalizes history, bringing heart and humanity to Renaissance geo-politics through people, through lives and loves.

– Jordan A. Rothacker, author of The Pit, and No Other Stories

With South of Sepharad, Eric Z. Weintraub takes Jewish historical fiction in a fresh, new direction, bringing readers up close and personal with Spain during the Inquisition, and the battles fought for both survival and staying true to one's faith.

– Alina Adams, author of My Mother's Secret: A Novel of The Jewish Autonomous Region and The Nesting Dolls
