Publisher's summary

“Entertaining, original, exceptionally well written, “The Arrival of Richard III" very nicely showcases author Kari August's impressive storytelling talents. Certain to be an enduringly popular . . .” Midwest Book Review

What would you ask for if God owed you a favor? King Richard III chooses to travel to the twenty-first century to repair his reputation. After more than five hundred years of Tudor-inspired propaganda, Richard’s name is in tatters. Reviled for crimes he never committed, he has his work cut out for him. He needs help, and decides his distant cousin Ned York is just the person to assist him.

But mild-mannered Ned has problems of his own. Recently fired from his prestigious law firm due to a mistake by his ex-girlfriend, Ned is trying to figure out what to do with his life. The last thing he needs is some cousin he’s never met, with a wacky story to tell, arriving at his doorstep in Colorado. Nevertheless, Ned finds he is unable to resist Richard’s plea for support and begins an adventure that turns his life even more upside down . . . while discovering Lindsey, the love of his life.

If only Lindsey can get around the fact that she thinks Ned is a little kooky. After all, Ned has now become convinced that Richard is actually the real king come back to life.

The Arrival of Richard III is a romping tale through the centuries, in which medieval and modern man comically clash.

Good Story. Virtual Voice, Not Good

I liked the story. I also believe that Richard III is misunderstood. I’d give this author a look when choosing future books.

Virtual Voice isn’t quite “there” yet for story telling. It… He… whatever, doesn’t make the correct verbal emphasis in a statement or sentence that a human reader would. It’s a bit distracting.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
