Philippa Gregory 3-Book Tudor Collection 2: The Queen’s Fool, The Virgin’s Lover, The Other Queen by Philippa Gregory (Epub)

Description

From the bestselling author of THE WHITE QUEEN, now a hit BBC TV production – the last three novels of her Tudor Court series: THE QUEEN’S FOOL, THE VIRGIN’S LOVER and THE OTHER QUEEN

Elizabeth Woodville, The White Queen(2009), Margaret Beaufort, The Red Queen(2010), and Jacquetta, Lady Rivers, The Rivers Woman(2011) are the subjects of the first three novels in Philippa Gregory’s Cousins’ War series, and of the three biographical essays in this book. Philippa Gregory and two historians, leading experts in their field who helped Philippa to research the novels, tell the extraordinary ‘true’ stories of the life of these women who until now have been largely forgotten by history, their background and times, highlighting questions which are raised in the fiction and illuminating the novels.THE QUEEN’S FOOL is a stunning novel set in the Tudor court, depicting the rivalry between Queen Mary and her half-sister Elizabeth, played out against a background of betrayal, conflict and passion. Elizabeth’s bitter struggle to claim the throne she believes is hers by right, and the man she desires almost more than her crown, is watched by her ‘fool’: a girl who has been forced to leave her homeland of Spain, as a Jew fleeing the Inquisition. In these dangerous times, a woman must choose between ambition… and love.

THE VIRGIN’S LOVER is a sumptuous historical novel set in the court of Elizabeth I, who has acceded to the throne of England, a position she has waited and schemed for all her life. She is surrounded by advisers, all convinced that a young woman cannot form political judgements. Elizabeth feels that she can rely on just one man: her oldest friend, Robert Dudley. As the pressure grows for Elizabeth to marry, her preference is clear, but he is unavailable. But what if the unthinkable were to happen… In a blend of passion, personalities and politics, this is a stunning novel of the Tudor court and a country divided.

In the final book of the Tudor Court series, THE OTHER QUEEN is a dramatic novel of passion, politics and betrayal. Mary, Queen of Scots, is fighting to regain her kingdom whilst under the guard of Queen Elizabeth’s trusted accomplice, Bess of Hardwick. Bess is a self-made woman, a shrewd survivor. She is newly married to her fourth and most distinguished husband, the Earl of Shrewsbury. But what marriage can withstand the charms of Mary? Or the threat of rebellion that she always carries?

With her characteristic combination of superb storytelling and authentic historical background, Philippa Gregory brings to life this period of great change, in a riveting tale of betrayal, loyalty, politics and passion.

⭐ Love the rich descriptions and makes history palatable. I hated history at school and for the first time I am really enjoying it

⭐ Just love Philippa Gregory’s writing style as well as beautiful stories. My kindle is relatively new and hers are the only books on it so far!

⭐ I’m not an historical expert so can’t comment on the accuracy, but as well as a good entertaining read I was introduced to some aspects an characters that I didn’t know about so Increased my historical knowledge as well.

⭐ Philippa Gregory is a marvel. Unputdownable books, fab storytelling and meticulous historical detail. |Every woman has her own distinct voice – in one book she is the villain, in the next it is from her POV – Gregory is a master story weaver

⭐ A little disappointed to have the books delivered covered in dust and dubious looking short, curly hair, other than that arrived quickly and it’s good to pass a book around, so three second hand books at an ok price, available when the usual sources were closed due to lockdown, so am grateful.

⭐ I enjoyed the first book although the premise seemed unlikely. The second book was good but the third I found a bit repetitive. Love the research Phillip a always puts into her stories.

⭐ I liked that the book covers three in one so I didn’t have to look for the other books, it also meant that I could read the books in the right order.

⭐ Very pleased, wasn’t disappointed and couldn’t put book down

⭐ Philips Gregory never ceases to grip the reader with her story telling, each book is hard to put down, wonderfully dramatized into words , you can’t wait to get onto the next book.

⭐ Great historical book enjoyed it very much
