    1. Thank you! I love the cover too. As an art lover, I am intrigued by the stories of Renaissance-era European women, mostly artists but also women like Trotula de Ruggiero, a female physician from Salerno.

    2. Thank you! As an art history fan, I am intrigued by women artists of the Renaissance era. I also love digging around in history for examples of women doing extraordinary things in that era--that's why Trotula de Ruggiero inspired this novella. All my best, Amy Maroney

  2. Do I need to read Sea and Stone Chronicles first, before I read The Pirate's Physician?
