Much better than the movie it was based on.
I read this after seeing the movie and was really impressed! I felt connected to the characters.
Tie in to the movie with Cate Blanchett. Not historically correct, but none the less, a good story.
Gives more info than movie on Queen Elizabeth's life.
The novel by Tom McGregor based on the screenplay by Michael Hirst for the movie starring Cate Blanchett.
Very entertaining, if you're not looking for historical accuracy! It compresses the events of many, many years of Elizabeth's reign into a few months. Interesting characters with interesting twists on their doings. Enjoyable.
