About the Book


Book Title: Secrets of the Wildflowers

Author Name: Sarah Talbert

Genre: Christian historical fiction

Release Date: April 30, 2024

In the heart of ancient Ur, where the gods cast shadows and tradition weaves the fabric of life,

Secrets of the Wildflowers unfolds the captivating tale of Miu, a spirited young woman

determined to bloom amid the constraints of her culture, family, and the ancient deities that hold

sway.

When tragedy strikes, and her beloved brother becomes a sacrifice to the gods, Miu embarks on a

courageous journey to break free from the shackles of societal expectations and unearth her true

purpose. Inspired by the resilient wildflowers that thrive against all odds, Miu is driven to forge

her own path and create a name for herself. 

As Miu navigates running her own tavern, friendship with an unlikely courier, and supporting an

abandoned child, she finds herself crossing paths with Abram, a figure of significance from the

Bible. In their encounters, Abram imparts profound wisdom, revealing that, like the wildflowers,

Miu is created to be unique. Yet, he guides her to embrace the very boundaries that enable her to

flourish.

Book Excerpt

She pictured the well-adorned priestesses strumming on their lyres to the gods

and goddesses while children frolicked through the streets. To Miu, the festivals were

more than a celebration. They brought order to her unpredictable world. They marked

the constant of seasons, the movement of time, and the planting and harvesting of

crops over her sixteen years. She embraced everything the festivals offered, except the

worship of the gods.

Today her mind was distracted by thinking of the excitement outside her father’s

workshop, and she hadn’t focused on the numbers. Her wandering mind cost her free

time. She took a deep breath, willing her eyes to focus on the tablets arrayed on the

table before her. Flinging her unruly hair in a knot on top of her head, the way her

mother despised, she set to work.

While most of her girlfriends learned to weave and make pottery, Miu spent those

years with a clay tablet and stylus rubbing calluses on her own fingers. As she grew, her

father took advantage of her other abilities, a mind to understand numbers.
