Barmaid Kitt is so poor, she can't even afford a new pair of slippers. She dreams of a better life, far away from the slums she's always known. She never expected to get abducted by Captain Francis Doon, a notorious sky pirate who swears she's the missing princess. Runaway Princess Lyneah fled her castle to escape her mother, a queen gone mad. On her search for a savior, she is mistaken for a penniless barmaid. For unknown reasons, the princess and pauper are nearly identical. And they're about to trade places. The Princess & The Pauper is a swashbuckling steampunk adventure with a dash of romance. The first three books of the Belles & Bullets series are included.

How did medieval hermits survive on their self-denying diet? What did they eat, and how did unethical monks get around the rules? The Egyptian hermit Onuphrios was said to have lived entirely on dates, and perhaps the most famous of all hermits, John the Baptist, on locusts and wild honey. Was it really possible to sustain life on so little food? The history of monasticism is defined by the fierce and passionate abandonment of the ordinary comforts of life, the most striking being food and drink. A Hermit's Cookbook opens with stories and pen portraits of the Desert Fathers of early Christianity and their followers who were ascetic solitaries, hermits and pillar-dwellers. It proceeds to explore how the ideals of the desert fathers were revived in both the Byzantine and western traditions, looking at the cultivation of food in monasteries, eating and cooking, and why hunting animals was rejected by any self-respecting hermit. Full of rich anecdotes, and including recipes for basic monk's stew and bread soup -- and many others -- this is a fascinating story of hermits, monks, food and fasting in the Middle Ages.
