Critics Review

‘A master storyteller…Gregory captures the intrigue and suspense of life at the Tudor court in vivid detail. She skilfully combines painstaking historical research with a gripping fictional narrative and her characters are so lifelike and engaging that they practically leap from the page’ – Daily Express‘Gregory brilliantly captures the torn loyalties, treacheries and tragedies that lie beneath the historical detail, to entertaining effect’ – Good Housekeeping‘Popular historical fiction at its finest, immaculately researched and superbly told’ – The Times‘Gregory creates a world in which all but the most determined women are tools in the hands of powerful men… past-paced, convincing, vivid and engrossing’ – Daily Express‘Philippa Gregory has another hit on her hands with this gripping page-turner. Her novel simplifies and humanises the complex politics of the period’ – Sunday Times‘Lady Margaret Beaufort – cold, clever, calculating – will stop at nothing to put her son Henry Tudor on the throne. Gregory is very good at describing the bitchiness of the women in this tale of dynastic rivalry’ – Daily Telegraph‘Rollicking, page-turning stuff’ – Metro‘Popular history at its best’ – Daily Mail‘Meticulously researched…for each novel she immerses herself in dozens of primary and secondary sources, before transforming them into vivid fiction’ – Sunday Telegraph‘Philippa Gregory is truly the mistress of the historical novel. It would be hard to make history more entertaining, lively or engaging’ – Sunday Express ‘Her novels are filled with strong, determined women who take their fate into their own hands’ – Financial Times‘Rarely has history been so seductive’ – Tatler‘Gregory makes history come alive … riveting’ – Daily Express
