Perfect for fans of Philippa Gregory and Alison Weir, The Virgin's War is award-winning author Laura Andersen's gripping conclusion in the trilogy about the next generation of Tudor royals, bringing to life the drama and intrigue of Queen Elizabeth I; her daughter, Anabel, Princess of Wales; and two countries locked in a battle for the ages.
Laura Andersen is married with four children, and possesses a constant sense of having forgotten something important. She has a B.A. in English (with an emphasis in British history), which she puts to use by reading everything she can lay her hands on.
“If you can’t manage without HBO’s Game of Thrones . .
. this Shakespearean-era fantasy may be your cup of tea. . .
. This volume imagines that Queen Elizabeth, known as ‘The
Virgin Queen’ actually wasn’t one—but married King Philip of Spain.
When the couple becomes estranged, their daughter Princess Annabel
must choose her alliance. It’s a quandary that makes the clash
between the Starks and the Lannisters look tame.”—New York Post
“Not only has Andersen created a believable world, but characters
readers have taken to heart. There is intrigue, passion, family
drama, loyalty, sadness and great joy within these pages. As the
novel moves quickly and intelligently to its climax, [Laura]
Andersen fans will rejoice!”—RT Book Reviews
