To mark the publication of the final book of House of Niccolò a gathering was organised in Edinburgh, which was attended by Dorothy Dunnett, who gave the keynote speech. This was followed by a gala meal for 300 attendees in the great hall of Stirling Castle.
A few months later, 200 readers gathered in Philadelphia and Dorothy attended this event as well.
Since then, many local, regional, national and international gatherings have been held to celebrate Dorothy Dunnett and her works.
