I love long author’s notes too! Nothing bothers me more than a historical novel without any note about what was and wasn’t and possibly where to find more.

Great review! It’s definitely gone on my wishlist!

Shana-
In that Gregory was who I was thinking of when I mentioned historical novelists who elaborate a bit too much, Worth is much more like Plaidy. I really like Plaidy, but I know people find her dry sometimes, I don’t think that same complaint would be made about this book – perhaps because of the first person narration, I’m not positive, but if I remember correctly, Plaidy usually uses 3rd person.

Thanks for the great review, Jen! This will definitely be on my Christmas wish list. This sounds like the perfect book to add to my Tudor series list.

Jen, I just put this on my Friday Finds after seeing a preview at J. Kaye’s blog.

Would you say this is more Jean Plaidy than Philippa Gregory?
