Over the next 20 years, Catherine would have a further seven romantic relationships. Although these were usually with much younger men, there is little to suggest any kind of voracious sexual appetite. So where do the legends about Catherine come from?

And this leads to many partly fictional works about her life. One book is "Empress of the Night: A Novel of Catherine the Great." Not close to being great literature, but when money is involved, who cares?
