I loved all the Tudor novels Philippa Gregory has written and was very excited that she started a new series of the time before the Tudor years since I knew so little about them.
I found myself confused through most of the book as there are way too many Edwards, Richards, Margarets, and dukes. There is a genealogical chart at the beginning of the book but it didn't cover the main characters in the bookwhich would have been very helpful. I liked this book enough to wade through it, but I also think it could have been much better. The writing was flat and didn't pull the reader in. Not so sure I will read the next in the series.
