The Hundred Years' War is raging. A new cannon has just been developed, a gem of Piedmontese armory known as the “couleuvrine.” This formidable weapon is dangerous to handle, and young Lucio seems to have a bit too much of a taste for risk, much to the despair of his father, a wise man fascinated by chess. So, who will prevail? The son or the father? Chance or calculation?

La guerre de Cent ans fait rage. Un nouveau canon vient d'être mis au point, un bijou de l'armurerie piémontaise, baptisé la "couleuvrine". Cette arme redoutable est dangereuse à manier et le jeune Lucio semble avoir un peu trop le goût du risque, au désespoir de son père, un homme, sage, fasciné par les échecs. Alors, qui l'emportera ? Le fils ou le père ? Le hasard ou le calcul ?

FAQ

Here are the answers to the most common questions I get asked, please review them and reach out to me if you need more info on something, I love to help you pick the right book, just for you!

Are the books New?

Yes, all the books that I sell during my bookfairs or online on my e-boutique are brand new.. You will be the very first to flip all the pages and enjoy the feeling of holding your own book in your hand.

What defines the prices of the books?

As a passionate small business owner, my goal is to offer a high level of quality imported from France at the best price. I understand that some people may be surprised by the difference of price between French and American books. In France, books are more expensive as authors and illustrators get larger copyright compensations. Also, imports cost quite a bit if you take into account the price of transport as well as the weight of what is being transported. I appreciate your constant support, when you choose sustainable small businesses over large corporations.

Do you have a shop?

My main way of meeting you is book fairs, festivals and private sales. Ordering online through my e-boutique is the best way to support French Authors and Small Minority Owned business like mine. I also have a physical location present in Orange County accessible via appointment only. Please contact me through text to get more information!
