Description

In the turbulent twilight of the Roman Empire, a fierce and free‑spirited people emerge from the Germanic forests: the Franks. Their daring raids, shifting alliances, and relentless quest for autonomy set the stage for a saga of war and destiny. At the heart of this tale stands Childéric, a charismatic warrior whose rise from tribal champion to the first king of a fledgling nation is marked by bold battles, charismatic leadership, and the uneasy balance between liberty and order.

Through vivid portrayals of ancient battlefields, courtly intrigue, and the raw spirit of a people yearning for greatness, the story captures the clash between fading imperial power and the birth of a new kingdom. Listeners will be drawn into the rituals of electing a king, the fierce loyalty of his retainers, and the personal sacrifices demanded by a world where honor and survival walk hand in hand. The first act promises a captivating blend of history and legend, inviting you to witness the forging of a legacy that will shape Europe for centuries.

A French writer, poet, and educator who moved through the literary and political worlds of Revolutionary and post-Revolutionary France, she left behind novels, poems, tales, and teaching manuals.
