If you love Elizabeth, you'll love reading this submitted by wendye999 on November 23, 2010, 10:31pm Another fantastic historical novel by Weir. Really tough to put it down...the story keeps you on the edge of your seat. A great way to get an inside view of this piece of history. Weir is every bit as good (in this book, maybe even better) as Philippa Gregory.

Very believable submitted by Susan C on January 4, 2021, 9:11pm This historical novel is written in a way that makes you feel like you are listening to the actual people. It made me curious about actual history, and looked up England’s monarchy succession. The story moves along quickly. A very worthwhile read.
