I just got this book and can’t wait to read it! I can never seem to get enough reading about powerful women in royalty. It never ceases to amaze me at just how influential they really were, even if they never ruled a country outright.

Good to hear it’s only the first book, as I read what you’d written about the time scale I thought it was a pity if it only covered a little. I’ve seen the cover about and been interested, but reading this post has made that more definite. The author’s note information just topped it off!

I’m really hoping I get my hands on this. This is such an interesting era and there’s not many books about Emma. It sounds like Bracewell hasn’t tried to sugar-code the events and I like that.
Thanks for the review

I just got this one on audio, and I am really excited that I will be listening to it! It sounds like it’s perfect for a historical fiction lover, and I am wondering if the audio will be as good as the book seems to be. I am fond of stories like this one, and hope that I love it as much as you did!

My mom and my sister would probably enjoy this book but I’m just not a fan of that time period for some reason.
