Praise for Piper

Readers who revel in lively historical fiction will love A. Piper Burgi’s The Country Girl Empress, one of a series. I can recommend this book and others in the series as an escape into a world depicting the machinations of maintaining a dynasty, but with sumptuous apparel and fancy feasts.

A. Piper Burgi is a multi award-winning author with a passion for bringing historical stories to life, as well as a deep love for animals. Her strong connection to animals and nature inspired her to write and publish the canine health book LIVING WITH CANINE EPILEPSY in November 2015, helping to raise awareness for a cause that remains very close to her heart.
