About the Book

In 1437, the Lancaster king Henry VI ascends the throne of England after years of semi-peaceful regency. Named "The Lamb," Henry is famed more for his gentle and pious nature than his father's famous battlefield exploits; already, his dependence on his closest men has stirred whispers of weakness at court. A secret truce negotiated with France to trade British territories for a royal bride-Margaret of Anjou-sparks revolts across English territory. The rival royal line, the House of York, sees the chaos brought on by Henry's weakness and with it not only opportunity in the monarch, but also their patriotic duty in ousting an ineffectual king. As storm clouds gather over England, King Henry and his supporters find themselves besieged abroad and at home. Who or what can save the kingdom before it is too late?

John Curless is a theater, film, and television actor.

Review :

"Capturing the stink and gore, violence and romance of medieval life, Iggulden makes real those grand characters who live in the collective memory. A page-turner sure to have readers eager for the next in the series."

-- "Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"

"Iggulden's latest exploration of the past hearkens back to 1443 during a transitional time for England...Iggulden's meticulous research brings history to life, especially with Margaret, showing how a mere child can be transformed into a determined royal."

-- "Publishers Weekly"

"Several of the well-drawn characters, especially the dashing, totally fictional Brewer, stand out to carry the narrative...And this is just the beginning...Iggulden's easy-to-follow take on the War of the Roses will keep followers of the old English royals completely engrossed. -Bernard -Cornwell fans will also enjoy."

-- "Library Journal"
