New Book

Published February 2024

This book is the narrative of three women of York, sisters to not one, but two kings of England. Anne, Elizabeth and Margaret Plantagenet were the daughters of Richard, Duke of York and his wife, Cecily Neville, and therefore sisters to Edward IV and Richard III. These women watched from the side lines as their father challenged England’s anointed king and lost his life, as their brothers fought together for the throne of England and then amongst themselves and as the Plantagenet dynasty fell, making way for the reign of the Tudors. . Between them they witnessed and contributed to one of the most turbulent times in English history yet they have naturally been overshadowed by their more famous brothers. This is their story.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars

I really enjoyed this, I really didn't know anything about Richard III's time in history. This had everything that I was hoping for and thought the history elements had a great overall feel to this book. I thought Sarah J Hodder wrote this perfectly and was well-researched. It felt like the sisters were brought to life.
