The Nativity of St. Genevieve

When an accidental fire claims the life of both her parents, young Genevieve is apprenticed to the village midwife, the only person who is willing to take her in. But Goody has a reputation of being more than just an herb-woman; it's whispered that she's a witch, as well.
Before long, Genevieve realizes that Goody isn't the only one in the village who can do magic - she can too! Uncertain what this means, she turns to the adults around her for help. Goody, the midwife; Roland, the smith; and Father David, the village priest. All of them have different ideas about what she is and why she can do the things she can.
Genevieve must learn what she is, and how to control her powers. Not only that, but she must do it quickly, before the villagers decide for her . . . and take action.

About the Author

Christine Van Mater writes alternate history novels because it is as yet the most practical use she has found for her MA in Medieval History. The Nativity of St. Genevieve is her first full-length novel,but she has plans for many, many more, both in Genevieve's world and in her pioneering sub-genre of Appalachian Steampunk. In her spare time she knits, roleplays, and serves as Dispenser-of-Manna-From-Above for a pair of not very bright parakeets. She can be found online on Twitter, Facebook, and her Blog, generally while she ought to be writing.
