Devil's Brood | Sharon Kay Penman

#BeautifulWords #Brood May be a beautiful word although not sure the Plantagenets were a beautiful brood! Don‘t rile them whatever you do, just ask Thomas Beckett.

This is a wonderful book for those that like historical fiction, a favourite author.

I've only read half of this one but there was definitely a lot of familial troubles - sons vs fathers; wives vs husbands and of course subjects vs the King.

WOW is all I can say. Queen Victoria was such a mighty figure. So staunchly far ahead in a lot of her thinking and ways and yet, still very "Victorian" in others. Wonderful biography being as writing it was kind of hard as so much information had been deliberately destroyed by others.

#fictionnonfiction The wonderful Plantagenets. I'm slightly obsessed by them.

LeahBergen Me, too. This is my next book to read in this series. 😀 8y

TrishB @LeahBergen It's fab 😀 enjoy. 8y

mjdowens I am a Henry VIII junkie myself😂 8y

PirateJenny The Plantagenets are awesome. The Dan Jones book is fantastic. He is also really nice and quite amusing. Production editors rarely get to meet authors but an exception was made for me. Some days my job is stinking amazing. 8y

TrishB @mjdowens I stop at 1485 😄😄 @PirateJenny That's cool 😀 I follow Dan on fb he is quite amusing! 8y

There are many stories of dysfunctional royal families across the ages. These are my favourite! Henry II, Eleanor, Richard I and John et al 😀 If you love history Shaton K Penman is brilliant!! #dysfunctionalfamily

DGRachel We have the same covers for Lionheart. I actually bought it second hand through an Amazon 3rd party, so I think it came from the U.K. 8y

I am very interested in this time period. Eleanor and Henry were such tragic people. Their family gives sibling rivalry a whole new meaning.

So what then? We just watch as Hal gallops headlong for the cliffs edge? What am I supposed to do, Eleanor? How do I reach him? She found herself blinking back tears. You must let him go, Harry. Even if he goes over that Cliff, you have to set him free
