I loved this book! Though admittedly I'm already someone who thoroughly enjoys reading about Elizabethan history... I thought the relationship between Queen Elizabeth and Dudley was a fascinating exploration of a power play during the 1500s. Especially like how Gregory weaves fact with fiction to create a believable story. My only problem with this book is that it was too short! It only covers the first few years of Elizabeth's reign, and I would have loved to read more about Dudley and Elizabeth in later years, after she decided not to marry anyone. Still, I have not been disappointed with this author yet. Highly recommended to anyone who enjoys historical fiction.
