Wars of the Roses: Margaret of Anjou by Conn Iggulden
The brilliant retelling of the Wars of the Roses continues with Margaret of Anjou, the second gripping novel in the new series from historical fiction master Conn Iggulden.As traitors advance . . . a queen defends.
It is 1454 and for more than a year King Henry VI has remained all but exiled in Windsor Castle, struck down by his illness, his eyes vacant, his mind blank. His fiercely loyal wife and queen, Margaret of Anjou, safeguards her husband's interests, hoping that her son Edward will one day come to know his father.
With each month that Henry is all but absent as king, Richard, the duke of York, protector of the realm, extends his influence throughout the kingdom. A trinity of nobles--York and Salisbury and Warwick--are a formidable trio and together they seek to break the support of those who would raise their colors and their armies in the name of Henry and his queen.
But when the king unexpectedly recovers his senses and returns to London to reclaim his throne, the balance of power is once again thrown into turmoil. The clash of the Houses of Lancaster and York may be the beginning of a war that could tear England apart . . .
Following Stormbird, Margaret of Anjou is the second epic installment in master storyteller Conn Iggulden's new Wars of the Roses series. Fans of the Game of Thrones and the Tudors series will be gripped from the word go.
Conn Iggulden is the author of the Emperor series, which includes Emperor: The Gates of Rome, Emperor: The Death of Kings, Emperor: The Field of Swords, Emperor: The Gods of War, Emperor: The Blood of Gods, and Emperor: The Gods of War. He's also the co-author of The Hazardous Book for Boys, The Dangerous Book of Heroes, and Tollins: Explosive Stories for Children, all of which were #1 New York Times bestsellers. He lives in Hertfordshire, England, with his wife and children, where he is working on his next book.
