About this listen

In The Boy King’s Tale, two entwined love stories, young and old, lead to betrayal, murder, and the near overthrow of a kingdom in this epic story of son and bride, mother and lover, in the extraordinary true story adventure of the earliest days of one of England’s most revered kings, Edward III. Parts of the story have been glimpsed before, the folly of a king and the beautiful queen who raised an army to defeat him and place her young son on the throne in his place, but here is told of the queen’s plot with her lover to murder her son and his young queen bride to place their infant prince on the English throne so that they might rule in absolute power. The dark and twisted world of medieval politics, war, glory, love, sex and romance, and the fate of the future are in the balance on one fateful night when rescue or death was held on the turn of a confession to a faceless monk.

Told by English court poet, Geoffrey Chaucer, as one of his tales on the day death bells toll from the steeples of Westminster.
