Catherine de Medici was one of history’s most powerful and influential women. To some, she was the ruthless queen who led France into an era of savage violence. To others, she was the passionate savior of the French monarchy. In this brilliantly imagined novel, acclaimed author C. W. Gortner brings Catherine to life in her own voice, allowing us to enter the intimate world of a woman whose determination to protect her family’s throne and realm plunged her into a lethal struggle for power.

From the fairy-tale chateaux of the Loire Valley to the battlefields of the wars of religion to the mob-filled streets of Paris, The Confessions of Catherine de Medici is the extraordinary untold journey of one of the most maligned and misunderstood women ever to be queen.

first off I loved the story line. I really want to commend the narrator for keeping each character unique and interesting. Some narrators keep the same voice for each character and it really kills a good book for me. I couldn't listen to this one fast enough. It made me eager to leave and come home from work.

Great narration & book. I felt eager to listen!

Catherine de Medici's life from birth to death. Catherine is a very interesting character, and I did not know before the book that she'd spent some of her youth with Savonarola's nuns - which for a Medici, was bad news. I already knew quite a bit about her reign as Queen of France. There's a bit that is 100% fiction about her relationship with a key Protestant, but it's an interesting diversion. Good, solid reader.

Good, solid genre fiction about an amazing woman

While I love stories of royal intrigue and the chess game of medieval kingdoms, this one is too long and becomes very tedious.

The reader is fine, but annoying. She struggles to maintain a voice for the characters and pronounces non-English words in an odd manner. She also has the strangest roll to her R, it's almost as if she's gagging on it.

Too long

I wish all autobiographies were read like this! Great story line too. I was swept away by the telling to a different time.

Loved this!
