Description

A bold reimagining of Joan of Arc’s early life, this historical novel follows a fiercely determined young woman who defies the limits imposed on her by family, society, and a nation at war. As violence and political upheaval reshape medieval France, Joan discovers the strength of her convictions and the cost of stepping into history. Blending richly imagined period detail with themes of faith, courage, identity, and female agency, the novel offers an intimate portrait of an iconic figure before legend overtakes the person. It is a powerful, immersive coming-of-age story about an ordinary girl’s extraordinary resolve.
