Title: For Children 13 and Under
Product review: The story of Joan d'Arc is one told many times, and "An Army of Angels" was a dissapointing version. The first few chapters were captivating, but the conversation with the angels grew tiresome, and midway, I could barely get through the book. Marcantel, who is said to work in the English Department at the University of Virginia, sadly lacks the advanced vocabulary a woman of her stature should have. Despite the fact that the extent of her research is evident, perhaps she should have spent more time using a thesaurus so that the text would be more rich and challenging. This goes to show that one should never judge a book by its cover, and "An Army of Angels" comes short of my expectations. Better to be categorised in the "Youth" section where the amateur grammar and sentence structure is more appropriately suited.
