About this listen

From best-selling author Lyn Andrews comes a compelling historical epic set at the endlessly fascinating Tudor court about the most infamous woman of the age - Anne Boleyn - and the man who loved her before she became queen. From the moment Henry Percy, future Earl of Northumberland, glimpses the beautiful Anne Boleyn he is captivated and quickly proposes marriage. Anne has been taught to use her charms to her advantage and to secure her family's position of power at court. She sees that Henry Percy's affection is sincere and agrees to marry him. But a match of the heart has no place in a world where marriage is a political manoeuvre.

Torn apart, the lovers are exiled to separate ends of the kingdom. For Henry a lifetime of duty awaits, while he remains true to the only woman he will ever love. But he is not the only man to be bewitched by Anne. And when King Henry VIII determines to make her his queen, the course of history is changed forever....

My first and only read of a Lyn Andrews book. I love Tudor History so was very interested to give this novel a try. She is known for her stories of the north and not really for historical novels. But I must say I wish she had kept to writing books like this. The main character of the book is so well portrayed. I really felt for him and his transportation to the borders to keep the Scots out of England and how they were stealing and doing so much damage back then.
Anne Boleyn is nicely portrayed and believable.
I shall certainly be listening to this novel again in the near future.

Lovely Book

I absolutely loved it and really enjoyed it. Very good. Brilliant! Loved it that it included bits about the Percy family as well as bits about Anne Boleyn.

Brilliant!

I've read other of Lyn Andrew's books and been quite happy with them, so thought this would be a safe buy. I wasn't impressed. The story seems to drag, and the whole "servant to Lord Henry Percy" angle just didn't grab me at all.



I won't even be finishing this book - about halfway through I've given up.

Over-long, poorly written, typo-howlers
