Reviews

Masterful . . . [Sharon Kay] Penman has absorbed herself so fully into the heart and mind of her protagonist that an undeniably flawed but refreshingly human Richard [the Lionheart] virtually walks off the pages * Booklist *
A well-researched and impressively detailed narrative displaying a strong commitment to historical accuracy and richly drawn, sympathetic characters * Library Journal *
Massively entertaining * Kirkus Reviews *
Once you start reading you won't want to stop * British Weekly *
