Customer Reviews

Another WINNER from Diane Haeger!

I enjoyed this book. Jane Seymour has always been the least written about of all Henry VIII's wives - the very boring, 'good' wife who did her 'duty', gave the king his longed-for son, and then conveniently died before Henry could get rid of her! This book brings her to life as much more than that. Well written as all Diane Haeger's books are.......lots of detail on the English court. I recommend it.
