In 1795, two young boys return home from fishing to find their parish priest has been guillotined in the town square. Seventeen years later, Jean-Luc and Adrien have faced every horror and hardship imaginable as part of the emperor’s Grande Armée, but their greatest challenge is still ahead: to find Jean-Luc’s love, Anna Lise.

Jean-Luc & Anna Lise is set in the turbulent years of the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars and follows the lives of three childhood friends: Jean-Luc, Adrien, and Adrien’s sister, Anna Lise. Jean-Luc and Adrien join Napoleon’s army expecting grand adventure and glory. They do find courage and comradery, but they must also endure disease, intense suffering, and death. Complicating their lives is Jean-Luc’s growing love for Anna Lise, who has fled with her parents from France to Russia - the country they must now invade.

Will Jean-Luc and Adrien find Anna Lise, survive the brutal Russian winter, and return home to France? Can Jean-Luc reconcile himself with the horrors he has witnessed?

I thoroughly enjoyed reading the novel. The author gives a strong sense of place and time with the descriptions of the settings and actions of characters and their steeds; it allows the reader to clearly imagine the events.

An excellent historical novel!

Beginning in 1795 in the village of Colmar France but eventually including areas throughout France, Germany, Prussia, Russia, Austria
and throughout Europe during the period of the 1700’s until the 1820’s.
This is a dramatic historical fiction and love story with complex descriptions of all aspects of life in this period. The detail and research which the author has woven into this story makes for a smooth listen especially when you do as I did which was to read the novel while listening to the excellent narrator. The narrator made me feel like I was living in this time. Because there are so many unfamiliar descriptions about all aspects of life at this time incorporated into the story it made for a wonderful way to fully enjoy this exceptional love story and historical fiction.
This is a profound story of undying friendships, faithful love of family, and profound deprivation.
It is a long book but it is so well written and researched that I found it to be one of my most favorite historical fiction reads, it has it all.

Jean-Luc and Anna Lise Is compelling epic historical fiction and love story
