I have slightly more then basic knowledge about the Tudors but I am not at all an expert, though I would say that this is a wonderful novel, or introduction to anyone wondering about the story behind Anne Boleyn and everything that happened before she was beheaded.


Meyer portrays Anne and her history as accurately as I am aware of. This is my first Carolyn Meyer novel though I have Duchessina on my to-read list. It is a young adult novel so it's very easy to read and very easy to understand (history is not always easy to keep straight) but I would recommend it to anyone who is interested in the Tudor era, or if you just love historical fiction.

This is the basic story of Anne Boleyn and how she weasled her way to the throne by marrying Henry VIII.
