Master Girl: A Romance

In the raw, untamed world before history was written, a woman named Deh-Yun makes a choice that defies everything her tribe expects of her. When she discovers Pul-Yun of the Sun Disc, a man from a rival tribe broken and helpless in the wilderness, she does the unthinkable: she abandons her people to save his life. As they navigate a treacherous landscape of primordial forests and ancient dangers, something remarkable emerges. Deh-Yun becomes the true master of their survival, her ingenuity, her sharp mind, her resourcefulness keeping them both alive. Pul-Yun, who set out to claim a wife through conquest, instead finds himself dependent on the very woman he meant to possess. This is a romance written with startling boldness for its era: a story where the woman rescues the man, where intelligence outmatches brute force, and where love grows not from possession but from unexpected partnership. Henry Marriage Wallis delivers an adventure that delighted readers hungry for something fresh, a stone age tale that inverts the oldest stories about who saves whom.
