In the year of grace 1308, Isabelle of France marries Edward II of England. She soon discovers, however, that the king is not the man of her dreams but rather an unstable, erratic individual who prefers digging ditches and thatching roofs to running the country, coupled with a dangerous obsession for greedy and ambitious male favorites who do not like sharing the king's favors. Isolated and powerless in the English court, Isabelle struggles to protect herself and her children as she slowly gains friends and allies.

Fast Paced and Intriguing
Revisado: 11-03-19
This is the story of an indulged child bride who is thrown into a strange country with a petulant teenage husband, and both start out as immature and childish as we travel through the lifetimes of Isabelle and Henry and witness the changes that they go through in vividly painted word ;pictures. This story of political intrigue never slows its pace and never becomes dull. The narrator uses a variety of accents of the British Isles and Europe so that it is more like listening to a radio show with a cast of characters, than a book being read by one person which helps to keep the plot clear to the listener. Highly entertaining and interesting historical fiction based on a true story.
