Review on The Red Queen by Phillipa Gregory

Here is an excerpt from my LAS review on The Red Queen: A Novel:

"Margaret Beaufort longed to be an abbess, an educated and religious woman immersed in the work of God. Unfortunately, that would be neither God's intention nor England's plan. After marrying a man three times her age, she discovers her undeniable destiny within her son, Henry Tudor. In Phillipa Gregory's long awaited novel The Red Queen, the author reveals a spiteful woman's beginnings and certainty to claim England's throne from a usurping king."

Review on The White Queen by Phillipa Gregory

Here is an excerpt from my LAS review on The White Queen: A Novel: 

"Best known for her Tudor Family-inspired novels, like the best-selling The Other Boleyn Girl, Gregory revisits England during the War of the Roses, a time and place where cousins and brothers destroy each other for a chance at the throne. When Lady Elizabeth Grey of Riverses marries the York claimant king, her desire for royal life and security depends on the elimination of her adversaries, the Lancasters. Throughout the novel, Queen Elizabeth will do whatever it takes to keep her royal title, whether it's through hiding, bribing, or crafting spells. Gregory grips readers at each page, where blood, deceit, and lust are ways to resurrect validity."
