The Death of Joan of Arc

The Death of Joan of Arc by Michael Scott tells the story of Joan's death in France, 1431. It is extremely short, and I think that the book should've been read after the 4th one in the series. Unfortunately I didn't do that and quite honestly can't remember Joan and Scathach's story lines. I'm also a little confused because of the timey-wimey stuff, but nonetheless, Michael Scott's writing was as expected and followed on from the series. I didn't read the blurb, so the 12 pages were full of suspense and Scathach's appearance was a wonderful surprise. I also enjoyed that it wasn't from Joan's perspective, but I definitely wouldn't mind reading that too.
All in all, I think it must be read if you are already reading or will start reading The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series.

This is a short story telling the rescue of Joan of Arc by Scathach. If you've read the books than you'll be familiar with the rescue, but Scott hasn't gone into detail until this short story. While it was a good addition to the series it was kind of disappointing that it was told from an observer's point of view instead of Joan or Scatty's. It would have been interesting to know what was going through Joan's mind during that time. The story is super short, only about 17 pages, but t chock full of action!

Short review: This is a very short story in the same realm as the rest of the Nicholas Flammel books. Doesn't really add much to the story and the basic are already hinted at in the books. But it is cheap and worth the read if you like the series.
