Özet

In 1483, Edward and Richard of York—Edward, by law, already King of England—were placed, for their protection before Edward's coronation, in the Tower of London by their uncle Richard. Within months the boys disappeared without a trace, and for the next five hundred years the despised Richard III was suspected of their heartless murders.

In To the Tower Born, Robin Maxwell ingeniously imagines what might have happened to the missing princes. The great and terrible events that shaped a kingdom are viewed through the eyes of quick-witted Nell Caxton, only daughter of the first English printer, and her dearest friend, "Bessie," sister to the lost boys and ultimate founder of the Tudor dynasty. It is a thrilling story brimming with mystery, color, and historical lore. With great bravery and heart, two friends navigate a dark and treacherous medieval landscape rendered more perilous by the era's scheming, ambitious, even murderous men and women who will stop at nothing to possess the throne.

l quite liked this. Easier to listen to than many Ricardian novels. After all, it's always like a book about Titanic, isn't it. The big ship sank to the bottom of the sea. But by virtually removing Richard from the plot, it gives the author the opportunity to talk about other things. No spoilers. but we all hate Buckingham, right? And the Beaufort snake. Something here for all of you.

And the promise of a sequel or two.

Just a couple of things before l go. Please. it's 'dived', not 'dove'. And gotten is just lazy. Apart from that, it's a romp. Not too serious, historical dubiosity here there and everywhere, but nothing to scare the horses. Narrator a bit annoying, but l've heard much worse.

An Enjoyable Romp
