Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 58
Virginal, chaste, humble, patiently waiting for rescue by brave knights and handsome princes: this idealized—and largely mythical—notion of the medieval noblewoman still lingers. Yet the reality was very different, as Kelcey Wilson-Lee shows in this vibrant account of the five daughters of Edward I, often known as Longshanks. The lives of these sisters—Eleanora, Joanna, Margaret, Mary, and Elizabeth—ran the gamut of experiences open to royal women in the Middle Ages.

I enjoyed everything about this. A great story about interesting women. I find the father daughter relationship between Edward I and his daughter Joan super interesting.

Johannes Cabal, a brilliant scientist and notorious snob, is single-mindedly obsessed in heart and soul with raising the dead. Well, perhaps not soul.... He hastily sold his years ago in order to learn the laws of necromancy. But now, tormented by a dark secret, he travels to the fiery pits of Hell to retrieve it. Satan, who is incredibly bored these days, proposes a little wager: Johannes has one year to persuade 100 people to sign over their souls, or he will be damned forever.

My favorite Audible listen so far. Great fun! Witty, clever dark humor. The descriptiveness of the scenes and characters creates a wonderful, creepy and quirky world. Love the characters. Exactly the escape I was hoping for. Listened with my elementary school age son who was found it very engaging. We will get more Cabal stories for sure.

This acclaimed best seller from popular historian Alison Weir is a fascinating look at the Tudor family dynasty and its most infamous ruler. The Six Wives of Henry VIII brings to life England’s oft-married monarch and the six wildly different but equally fascinating women who married him. Gripping from the first sentence to the last and loaded with fascinating details, Weir’s rich history is a perfect blend of scholarship and entertainment.

Enjoyed this so very much

I will def purchase more Weir books especially anything narrated by Prebble. I love that he doesn't try to act out the voices much. Before I purchased this book I returned couple of other books because the narration was too hard to deal with. I was so happy that the further I went the more it pulled me in! I was looking to get thoroughly lost in history and I did. It was just as I had hoped it was be.
