Just realized. The horror fantasy novel "Between Two Fires" by Christopher Buehlman has a main character who fought in this battle on the French side. It's interesting hearing the big picture to his small, fucked up story.

2023-05-09 22:58:44 +0000 UTCFunny you should mention John the Blind's horse, and how it reacted to hearing it'd be leading him into battle; there's actually a first hand account. It said, and I quote, "nay"
