This is a semi-engaging, beach read-y type novel. After reading "The Constant Princess" and "The White Queen", which are amazing (!), I expected this one, featuring the Great Elizabeth I, to be extra-ordinary as well, maybe more so than her other novels, but it wasn't as "deep" or intriguing. Don't get me wrong, it was good, but it isn't her best. I do have to credit this book with getting me interested in Elizabethen England and I do reccommend reading it, but just don't expect the magic and "girl power" feel of some of her other books.
