About this listen
Anne grows from a delightful child brought up at the court of Edward IV and his queen, Elizabeth Woodville, intimacy and friendship with the family of Richard, Duke of Gloucester. Her life is overturned when her father turns on his former allies, escapes England and invades with an enemy army. Widowed at 14, fatherless, with her mother locked in sanctuary, and her sister a vengeful enemy, Anne faces the world alone.
But fortune's wheel turns once again. Anne plots her escape from her sister's house, finds herself a husband in the handsome young Duke of Gloucester, and marries without permission, in secret. But danger still follows her. She finds that she has a mortal enemy in the most beautiful queen in England. Anne has to protect herself and her precious only son from the treacherous royal court, the deadly royal rival, and even from the driving ambition of her husband - Richard III.©2015 Philippa Gregory (P)2015 Simon & Schuster

The narrator really fits the character
I really like Jane’s performance as if she, herself, is the Anne, a little timid but determined and smart in her way. I love the book and story and I have read the book before listening to the audiobook. Even though I had particular image/imagination of characters, I still enjoyed the book much. Just to emphasize that I really really love Charlie (Richard)🥰

Another Great Perspective
I have been listening to these in the recommended order - and it is a great format to listen to the same story in another persons perspective
A common theme throughout this period of time is misogamy and blind religious faith - which still exists but not as concentrated - thankfully

A good historical novel but this one wasn't for me
Have read earlier books books by this author whuch I thoroughly enjoyed (the Tudor series). Unfortunately I found this very repetitive and less exciting and engaging. The historical content was educational.
