In the internationally best-selling writer of Nefertitiand Cleopatra's Little princess comes the amazing story of Queen Lakshmi - India's Joan of Arc - who against all chances defied the mighty English invasion to defend her much loved kingdom. When the English Empire packages its places on India in the mid-nineteenth hundred years, it expects a quick and easy conquest. India is fractured and split into kingdoms, each self-employed and cautious with one another, apparently no match for the might of the English. However when they arrive in the Kingdom of Jhansi, the British isles army is satisfied with a amazing challenge. Instead of surrendering, Queen Lakshmi increases two armies - one man and one female - and rides into battle, determined to protect her country and her people. Although her soldiers may not appear at first to be formidable against superior British isles weaponry and training, Lakshmi refuses to back down from the empire that is set to take away the land she enjoys. Told from the unexpected point of view of Sita - Queen Lakshmi's most preferred companion and most trusted soldier in the all-female army - Rebel Queen shines a light on a time and place seldom explored in historical fiction. Within the custom of her best-selling novel, Nefertiti,and through her strong, self-employed heroines preventing to make their ways in a male-dominated world, Michelle Moran brings nineteenth-century India to wealthy, vibrant life.
