Turning the World to Stone

The Life of Caterina Sforza Part One (1472 to 1488)

by Kelly Evans



Vilified by history, Caterina Sforza learned early that her life was not her own. Married at age ten, she was a pawn in the ever-changing political environment of Renaissance Italy.

Resigned to her life as a fifteenth-century wife, Caterina adapted to the role she was expected to play: raising and educating her children, helping the poor in her new home, and turning a blind eye to her husband’s increasingly shameful behaviour. But Fate had other plans for her, and soon Caterina’s path would be plagued by murder, betrayal, and heartbreak.

“Could I write all, the world would turn to stone.”



Praise:

"It is an engaging tale, sure to delight fans of stories concerning the forgotten women of history and those interested in Italian history."
~ MJ Porter, author of bestselling historical fiction

"A very good insight into Caterina Sforza's life! This novel was very pleasant to read and extremely interesting as to Italian politics in the 17th century. "
~ Amazon Review
