This is a novel about the wife of Martin Luther, Lutheran Reformation--- Katharine Luther, and Luther's nickname for her was Kitty, my rib. Excellent novel into the lives of Martin and Katharine Luther.

I liked the book, because I was interested in the story of Martin Luther's wife. I did not like the style of the book which was written at perhaps sixth grade level with rather repetitive, simple dialog. The author stated at the beginning that there was not much information available on Katharine Luther so I suppose it was rather difficult to flesh out the story. I did appreciate that it was written as a novel which made it more interesting than if it had been just the facts.
