An exciting historical adventure, with no war or rape, about a 12 year-old girl with more courage and heart than any warrior on a quest.

A Mongolian coming of age story. Oyuna was considered bad luck because of a crushed foot, but she goes with her horse and rides with Kublai Khan's forces and learns to make her own luck.
