Marching As to War Justin Watson

A New Dark Age Twenty-six years ago the Plague plunged the world into a new dark age of primitive anarchy and violence. Armed bands, united by blood or belief, fight for survival and power. Life is war.

God Has Called Her In the mountains of what was once North Carolina, a 17-year-old girl named Jane proclaims God has called her to save her people from a powerful and brutal enemy, the Restored Government of the United States.

On the Brink of Victory Against all odds, Jane inspires an insurgency that battles the Government army to a standstill. Yet on the brink of victory, she is betrayed and abandoned by the leaders of her people and is captured by the enemy.

A Desperate Mission Her story is told by a nameless soldier, assigned to protect her. Initially skeptical, he follows Jane, comes to believe in her, and even falls in love with her. When she is captured, he sets out on a desperate mission to rescue her.

The Power of Stories Marching As to War is a story about the power of stories, about their power to inspire us to kill and die for a cause, and about their power to heal a wounded soul.
