Abstract: Welcome to the first issue of the Journal of Historical Fictions for 2025! It has been great to see the positive response to the relaunch of the Journal in late 2024. We are planning to introduce a reviews section to the Journal in the December issue, so please do get in touch if you would like to review a recent publication for the Journal. The articles in this edition reflect the diversity of historical fiction, both now and in the past. The common theme that runs through these articles is the way that historical fiction can give voice to the experiences of marginalized people across history. Each article explores this theme through a different lens; a wonderful illustration of the depth and breadth of historical fiction studies.
