The Swashbuckling Adventures of a 17th Century Nerd.
Felicity Montague is a complete failure as a Lady: uninterested in romance, fascinated with blood and guts, and built like a fireplug so she can’t wear the fashions that she doesn’t care to wear anyway, she strides her way a bit clumsily through life with only one goal in mind – becoming a physician.
Felicity is a delight. She falls down a lot. She loses her glasses. She’s completely in touch with her own excretory system. But she’s much more than a geeky goofball, because her overriding characteristic is a thirst for knowledge to which everything else must take a back seat. There’s a sweet purity to Felicity’s ambition that anyone who’s truly passionate about something will happily recognize.
Oh, and there are pirates, cryptids, and a big, sloppy, lovable dog, too.
This is the second volume in the Montague Siblings series.
