Helpful Score: 2
If you love Philippa Gregory, Alison Weir, or even the TV series "The Tudors", then you'll enjoy this novel of the life of Henry VIII's last wife, Katherine Parr. Going well beyond the fact that she's the one who "survived", her story is told in a very fast paced and expertly written manner by an author who clearly did her research. Elizabeth Fremantle paints Katherine in a very progressive light with effortless prose, causing me to cheer on her victories and lament her sorrows. A must read for fans of historical fiction.
