This is one of the better books that I have read. The research that went into the writing of this book is incredible. You don't have to like history or historical fiction to like this book. All that I ever knew of Richard III was from what Shakespeare that I had in school. This book gives him humanity and substance rather than the comic book-like characterization that has been the case in the past.
This is the first of Sharon Kay Penman's books that I have read. If they are all as well written and researched as this one, all I can say is, Wow! I recommend this book highly to anyone. A highly enjoyable read.
