Shannon K. (peche) reviewed on
Ms Mantel conveys to the reader an impression of how thoroughly detestable and self serving everyone at Court was during the reign of Henry VIII (otherwise known as the wife du jour years of sixteenth century British history).
First and foremost among the detestable and self serving individuals was 'good king Hal' himself.
I must admit a to a sneaking fondness for Cromwell but a similar case could be made for many of the victims of Henry's reign by a sympathetic biographer.
Guess the jury's still out, so read and reach your own conclusions.
