For centuries the story of Joan of Arc has held a special fascination. Keneally sees her as a rather ordinary young girl, a plain-spoken bewildered adolescent - albeit one who literally saved France for Charles VII. She's also a tough radical, an instinctual solder and a nagging prophet. This novel concentrates largely on the Maid's lifting of the seige of Orleans. As victory is assured, Jehanne - who by this time is regarded by many as an unchivalrous transvestite witch - undergoes a natural transformation which at once makes her woman and inevitably seals her doom.
