THE SECOND NOVEL IN THE COUSINS' WAR SERIES FROM SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR, PHILIPPA GREGORY

Child-bride of Edmund Tudor, although widowed in her early teens, is determined to infiltrate the house of York under the guise of loyal friend and servant. It's the only way to ultimately ensure that her only son, Henry Tudor, triumphs as King of England.

Through collaboration with the dowager, Queen Elizabeth Woodville, Margaret agrees a betrothal between Henry and Elizabeth's daughter, thereby uniting the families and resolving the Cousins War once and for all by founding of the Tudor dynasty.

The book was the usual absorbing Philippa Gregory historical 'faction', and on the whole was excellently narrated but the lead narrator's attempt at a Welsh accent sounded comically Indian and her child Henry's voice was annoyingly squeaky. It was a horrible note in an absorbing story and if narrators cannot create and sustain a plausible accent, they should just use their own voice. Especially when they have a pleasant one, as this narrator does.

Good narration but dreadful accents

What did you love best about The Red Queen?

For Gregory fans, this was a new departure: a less loveable main character and a harder historical period to relate to. I enjoyed getting a new perspective on an era that, as a History teacher, I still find confusing. The author really brings to life the difficult position women were in at that time and the amazing strength the Red Queen had, in order to achieve what she did.

Would you recommend The Red Queen to your friends? Why or why not?

Would definitely recommend to friends - well written and read, exciting, interesting and truly amazing, knowing that most of it actually happened.

Which scene was your favorite?

In the early parts of the book, the true horror of what her marriage as a child-bride to a much older man must have been like are amazingly effective and haunt you for the rest of the book. Not exactly a favourite scene but a memorable few chapters that make you glad to be living in the 21st century!

Another fab book from Philippa Gregory!

After listening to the First book in this trilogy I expected the characters to be at least more interwoven but that doesn’t happen. This is more of a stand alone book with reference to the other books’ characters and their relationship.
Also I found the book pretty boring I. Parts in the detail it went into with the battles and main characters thoughts and feelings. I also did not like the main character and found her irritating!

Not what I was expecting
