This novel managed to combine historical inaccuracies with character slanders while diminishing neither. Elizabeth the First, portrayed as a dependent, indecisive child, has an affair with her childhood friend.

I love this book!
Another page turner from Philippa Gregory! Fiction based on actual history, this narration is very believable and extremely enjoyable. You will fall in love with the characters.
