I loved the Kindle version and the entire series â really great stuff⦠but.. [there is always one.âº.]
I would have found a gazetteer of âoldâ and âOLTâ names especially helpful when trying to plot/imagine the circum Africa/Persian Gulf & beyond voyage in âForeign Travelsâ.. Just a thought..
I had no one source for all the names – some were on the Roman world map I have used all the way through and which can be found here : https://imperium.ahlfeldt.se/
The rest I found on Wikipedia or through google – mostly by looking for earlier names for particular places or regions – so unlike the Roman Empire there is no one source or even several sources but lots of individually researched places.
thanks – I did all the Arturo covers myself – originally to cut costs and not to keep the same “style” – the Princess books have covers by a professional artist, as will the Taroniah and Kyron fantasy books coming out next

Beautiful picture Peter. I especially like the blue-green colour of the airship.
