Print Length: 1999 Pages
Genre: Historical Fiction

A true Game of Thrones. Meet the players: King Edward IV, the handsome youth whose courage and battlefield skills led him to the throne; King Henry VI - his contemporaries called him mad; King Richard III, still controversial today. Their wives: beautiful, low-born Elizabeth Wooville; Margaret of Anjou, fierce and formidable; Anne Neville, daughter of the 'Kingmaker'.

In 1453, King Henry fell into a catatonic state. In 1492, Queen Elizabeth died. The years in between were marked by murder, treachery, and romance amid a titanic struggle for the English crown. The civil war between the houses of York and Lancaster was like no other. Here in these three volumes is the full story.

  1. Richard III, Anne Neville and the Wars of the Roses? Well, I’m clearly not going to be objective about this one! 😂 Three volumes though… now that is a serious amount of Plantagenet drama. I’m here for it. 👑📚
