Do check out the Fablecroft page for information about the woman who served as the basis for each story.
Some of the subjects in the TOC is obvious, other titles make me ask. “Who’s *that*? Tell me more!”
All the ladies the stories are based on are listed at our website – SO EXCITED ABOUT THIS BOOK, and I’m glad others are too 🙂
I didn’t see the Kickstarter for this. Is there any way I can preorder it?
Keep an eye on our website (or follow on Twitter or Facebook) – we’ll post there as soon as pre-orders are announced. The book is due in March 2015 🙂
