About this listen
Eleanor of Aquitaine.
A loving mother. A betrayed wife. A queen beyond compare.
Imprisoned by her husband, King Henry II, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Queen of England, refuses to let her powerful husband bully her into submission, even as he forces her away from her children and her birthright.
Freed only by Henry's death, Eleanor becomes dowager Queen of England. But the competition for land and power that Henry stirred up among his sons has intensified to a dangerous rivalry.
Eleanor will need every ounce of courage and fortitude as she crosses the Alps in winter to bring Richard his bride, and travels medieval Europe to ransom her beloved son. But even her indomitable spirit will be tested to its limits as she attempts to keep the peace between her warring sons, and find a place in the centres of power for her daughters.
Eleanor of Aquitaine's powerful story is brought to a triumphant and beautiful close by much-loved author Elizabeth Chadwick.

Final book of the series
I enjoyed hearing the last of three colourful and well-told pats of the series.
The narrator’s voice was great as usual even if at times she sounded almost a bit too angry during arguments in the storyline, maybe funny for some but it kind of stressed me out.

Good story
Good story, very descriptive, very long. The narrator improved as the book went on, I thought, but her ability to reproduce accents wasn't great!
