«Le serment des catacombes» is the historical novel for young readers by Odile Weulersse, published by Hachette in paperback (284 pages, in French).
Touitilla, a fifteen-year-old Christian, risks her life for her friends in imperial Rome: the authorities detest these «impious» people, blame them for every crime, and condemn them to torture and death. Her support is a champion chariot-racing gladiator, unskilled with words, in a story of faith, friendship, and betrayal.
The cover indicates that the work was awarded the Grand Prix des Jeunes Lecteurs 1987 and that it is a complete, unabridged text edition.
Aimed at readers aged 9 to 12 with an interest in the Roman Empire, early Christianity, and adventure stories.
