The Setting
The characters in Earth & Sky are frequently hopping from one place (and time) to another. Most of those places I described with the help of book and internet references and a healthy dose of imagination to fill in any blanks. But I was able to visit Paris not long before I wrote the book. Not the Paris of 1830, naturally, but many of the buildings there have been around since much longer back!
When Skylar and Win first arrive in Paris, she sees a river: that would be the Seine. (No car traffic in 1830, naturally.)
She also notices a building she thinks might be the Notre Dame (though she's not this close to it).
Her first glimpse of the Louvre makes her think of a palace.
The halls inside obviously wouldn't have looked like this back then, but it gives you a sense of the space.
Even the ceilings contain works of art.
This is the courtyard in the midst of the museum that Skylar and Win momentarily land in, though of course it would not have included the pyramid structure at that time.
