Alison Weir makes Henry VIII's story feel like it has never been
told before . . . she gets under the skin of the man who is so
often dismissed as a much-married monster and gives us an
altogether more nuanced, compelling and human portrayal --
Tracy Borman
As always, Alison Weir is ahead of the curve - and at the top of
her game. Her wide knowledge and unparalleled understanding of the
Tudor era fuels a sympathetic, but never sycophantic, portrait of
England's most compelling king -- Sarah Gristwood
This is royal Tudor life both in broad scope and intimate detail
and readers are in for a sumptuous journey -- Elizabeth
Chadwick
What a book! Alison has done a fantastic and impressive job of
bringing to life such a notorious historical figure as a
multi-faceted, imperfect yet likeable and even, at times, pitiable
character . . . Complex, captivating and memorable -- Tracy Rees
