From Arizona, where a Native American is on a quest to connect with her culture, to Belfast, where a mother fights to bring her children to America, the world is united by the sight of the Agincourt comet, which blazes through the sky. Even IN THE COUNTRY OF THE GREAT KING, there is loneliness, lost identity, longing, and inspiration. Set in a variety of places in the world, Ardythe Ashley’s novel takes the reader on a journey through human emotion: reuniting with one’s culture, finding love, surviving the loss of a loved one, and connecting with God.
