Diana | 36 comments I don't know why but I've really wanted to read some historical fiction involving Joan of Arc but haven't actually found anything. Does anyone know of any?

Joseph  (bluemanticore) | 89 comments I just finished a great book about Joan of Arc, check out The Maid by Kimberly Cutter.


message 3: by Margaret (new)

Margaret (readingwithmargaret) Diana I have been feeling the exact same way. Not sure why either.


message 4: by Chrissie (new)

Chrissie I know of An Army of Angels: A Novel of Joan of Arc and Mark Twain's Joan of Arc. He thought it was his best novel. Maybe the latter is a bit difficult to read.

Amy Bruno (amy_bruno) | -15 comments I will second Joseph's comment on The Maid by Kimberly Cutter, it was really fantastic and I highly recommend it. Kimberly Cutter is a great author and I thought she really captured Joan's spirit very well!

Diana | 36 comments I'd heard about Mark Twain's novel but it didn't really get my attention, I'll keep The Maid in mind since I've seen a lot of reviews for it.
