The book Artemis Rising is centered around a young pagan girl. The story
takes place between 1600 and 1800 AD. Then most people were Catholic and
those who weren't were considered wrong and a disgrace, never to be
associated with. In the new land, Arethusa and her mother were suspected

he decided to take his wife and Arethusa back to their homeland. On the way
