My novel, The Sword, The Book, and The Bone is based on large part on three real people, me, my grandfather, and my greatgrandfather. The rest is a fictional alternative history based on meticulous real historical research. The goal was hyperaccuracy in things described. Like this coin, featuring the name of Gaius Cassius Longinus, leader of the Liberators -- the men who assassinated Julius Caesar on the Ides of March.
