Please avoid spoilers!
“Outside the city, crops and barns were burning, set ablaze by soldiers of the rebel government. Emperor charles was coming – or at least his troops were, led by the Prince of Orange – and the rebels did not intend for them to find succor beyond the walls of Florence.”
- The Devil’s Queen: A Novel of Catherine de Medici by Jeanne Kalogridis, p. 80

I love books like this, from this particular era. So of course I was intrigued even before the teaser. But it was an excellent choice, and very dramatic. Thanks!
My own teaser is at Bookishgal.
(And I love your blog template. I use the same one. It’s so versatile, isn’t it?)
