Royal Road to Fotheringay Reviews

Her novels are still very much to be enjoyed ... Any writer who can both educate and thrill a reader of any age deserves to be remembered and find new fans ... One only has to look at the TV/Media to see that the appetite for this kind of writing is still very much there -- Matt Bates * WH Smith Travel *
Jean Plaidy doesn't just write the history, she makes it come alive. -- Julia Moffat, RNA
This must surely rank best, or near it, of the many novels about this sadly fascinating woman * Birmingham Mail *
These books are page-turners; they offer a wonderful way to learn about history, their heroines are smart, strong and in control of their destinies and their stories will remain with you for ever...They are a celebration of women's spirit throughout history. * Daily Express *
freshly alive * Observer *
