Katharine, The Virgin Widow: (Tudor Saga) | Jean Plaidy

Terrible photo...but I am enjoying this book by Jean Plaidy. Katharine had a spectacular, but also very sad, life. I started collecting Plaidy books about 10 years ago after reading her Norman trilogy. Finally decided I need to actually read them all and free up shelf space! Started with the Tudor Saga. Jean Plaidy was a pen name of author Eleanor Hibbert (who also wrote as Philippa Carr, Victoria Holt and several other pseudonyms).

Scochrane26 I used to read some Victoria holt when I was a teen but didn‘t know it was a pen name. 5y

Sace The Ferdinand and Isabella trilogy is also very good. I think I've tagged the first book.
