Renowned for her highly acclaimed and best-selling British histories, Alison Weir has in recent years made a major impact on the fiction scene with her novels about Queen Elizabeth and Lady Jane Grey. In this latest offering, she imagines the world of Eleanor of Aquitaine, the beautiful 12th-century woman who was queen of France until she abandoned her royal husband for the younger man who would become king of England.

In a relationship based on lust and a mutual desire for great power, Henry II and Eleanor took over the English throne in 1154, thus beginning one of the most influential reigns and tumultuous royal marriages in all of history. In this novel, Weir uses her extensive knowledge to paint a most vivid portrait of this fascinating woman.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“A Tudor specialist, popular British historian Weir has ventured, with great success, into the increasingly expansive world of historical fiction…The history itself is inherently dramatic, augmented here by Weir’s usual lush detail, which stimulates rather than detracts from the well-paced narrative.” ( Booklist)

A wonderful love story that turns to a very sad love lost story. I love the old England history and the Kings & Queens the rule the lands. The narrator does a great job of bring the actors to life and making you feel as if you are there and living the story for yourself. Wonderful!! love it so much.

Very sad Love story

I love historical fiction and Mrs Weir does this justice like the rest of her books. incredible to hear stories on how different circumstances were in the past when people were married off to the best alliance and minds were changed in a minute. Eleanor sounds like such am amazing Queen that endured so much during her life, was loved and betrayed by the same King but she endure all to have her sons inherite her lands and what was rightfully theirs. she was a lioness for sure.

excellent

Would you listen to Captive Queen again? Why?

Yes, I love historical stories about kings and queens. This was well written and expertly narrated. The story covers not just a romance, but the history and Weirs point of view for the life of a rich and intriguing women living through a male dominated life. Her trials and tribulations were great, but in the end, with the love of her many children, she was able to rise above it all.

What does Rosalyn Landor bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The emotions and fire of the Queen

I could not stop listening!

Alison Weir seems to be losing her edge. I've always been a fan of her writing but, recently, her books are coming off like romance novels. I love Eleanor of Aquitaine - I know she was a ***ch sometimes but, hey, she was a woman in a man's world! In this book, she is portrayed as flighty and slutty, rather than the woman with a purpose who lived her life like a man. I've purchased every Weir audio book available here but this one just might be my last!

DISAPPOINTING.....

Long a fan of royal history, it was fun to go back to the 1100s and hear about Henry II and his wife Eleanor. The passion, love, craziness, cruelty, and forgiveness wove a tale worth hearing. Once again Alison Weir provided a captivating account that kept royal history buffs tuned in. Rosalyn Landor did an EXCELLENT narration throughout this long story. I recommend The Captive Queen for anyone interested in a good tale of old.
