One last thing: can anybody tell me who the last women is on the cover? I see Rodrigo and Ammar quite easily, and the woman on the right must be Jehane, but who's the woman on the left? The only real option is Rodrigo's wife, but she has only a minor part. Having only Rodrigo, then Jehane, then Ammar would have fit better thematically.
And while we're at it, who's the woman on the Tigana cover???

The second woman on Lions has to be Rodrigo's wife,Miranda (I don't have my book handy, but I think that's her name, if not, well, Rodrigo's wife). It represents the love quadrangle. Rodrigo loves everyone: Miranda, Jehane, and Ammar. Miranda actually teases Rodrigo about this, saying that she feels jealous of Ammar. Miranda loves Rodrigo, and in time, comes to view Jehane as a sister. Jehane loves both men, and Ammar loves both Jehane and Rodrigo.
The woman on the cover of Tigana is Dianora.
The chief difficulty Alice found at first was in managing her flamingo.
