À propos de cet audio
Brother turns on brother. The throne of England is at stake. The deadly Wars of the Roses have begun....
They ruled England before the Tudors, and now internationally best-selling author Philippa Gregory brings the Plantagenets to life through the dramatic and intimate stories of the secret players: the indomitable women.
Elizabeth Woodville, a woman of extraordinary beauty and ambition, secretly marries the newly crowned boy king of England. While she rises to the demands of her exalted position and fights for the success of her family, her two sons become the central figures in a famous unsolved mystery that has confounded historians for centuries: the lost princes in the Tower of London.
Philippa Gregory brings the artistry and intellect of a master writer and storyteller to a new era in history and begins what is sure to be another best-selling classic series.

Another Beautiful Book
Another favorite story both fiction and facts blended smoothly to weave a captivating story about the cousin's war and love story between Elizabeth Woodville and Edward and the game of who's king next.

Lovely
There is no greater writer of historical fiction. No book she has ever written has ever disappointed me.

Enchanting ...
I read the White Queen by Philippa Gregory out of its intended order by mistake. I had been frustrated by the recounting of her third book, the Red Queen and wasn't sure what to expect, having to go backwards to read the second book. Fortunately books 2 and 3 of the series are so interconnected and take place at the same time that it doesn't actually matter what order you read them in. I found the White Queen to be the engaging, active, and enchanting story I was missing from its sister book.
Elizabeth Woodville was a largely disliked queen said to be a descendant of a water goddess. This retelling of her marriage to King Edward IV and her tumultuous reign as queen paints her in a more sympathetic, feminist light than what we've seen from historical accounts.
Both the story and performance were very engaging. Thankfully there were no changes of perspective or voice. Sometimes the storytelling favored plot points over characterization but overall this is a fun read if you like historical fiction.
Be warned: Audible Canada does not have the series listed in the correct order and does not have all the books in the series either, which is sad.

Narrator is important
I love this series but I was disappointed that Bianca Amato did not narrate this one.
