Has anyone read 'Three Sister, Three Queens' or whatever the title is yet?
And more importantly...if so. Is it any good?

Re: New Tudors novel
I was planning to get it from library after I read 'The King's Curse'.
Into battle we ride with Gods by our side
We are strong and not afraid to die
We have an urge to kill and our lust for blood has to be fulfilled
WE´LL FIGHT TILL THE END! And send our enemies straight to Hell!

OK then, the library zapped the Anna Lee Huber off my kindle so I'm attacking this. Not going well yet. Anyone up for quotes?

I love the Amazon Kindle page, where my highlighted stuff sits and I can copy and paste with ease. Here we go. First lines:SCW wrote:Yes please
I am to wear white and green, as a Tudor princess. Really, I think of myself as the one and only Tudor princess, for my sister Mary is too young to do more than be brought in by her nurse at suppertime, and taken out again.

She does not like K of A one bit.
I want to show the Spanish princess that I am just as good as the daughter of Castile and Aragon. My mother and father are a Plantagenet and a Tudor. Those are grand enough names for anyone. Katherine needn’t think that we are grateful for her coming. I, for one, don’t particularly want another princess at court.

Re: New Tudors novel
Margaret B is still fully in charge.
K of A has a new nickname from our narrator.The wedding passes off very brilliantly, arranged by my lady grandmother, of course, to show the world just how wealthy and grand we are now.
So we make our bows and curtseys to the king and to my mother and to my lady grandmother, and to darling Arthur and Katherine of Arrogant, and then we have to go, dawdling as slowly as we dare, from the bright rooms where the white wax candles are burning down as if they cost no more than tallow, and the musicians are playing as if they are going to go on all night.

Observations on young Henry.
Nobody would treat him like this if he were going to be king one day; they are making a tyrant.
He will be running to our mother—I can hear his riding boots clattering down the gallery. He will be running to fling himself into her rooms and cry into her lap and beg her not to let me take precedence over him, not to let me be queen when he is nothing but a second son and a duke, begging her to put me in a place below him, to reduce me to the lesser importance of being a girl, to drag me down from being a queen.

Re: New Tudors novel
I'm lost. Can someone make sense out of that?“Her clever, wicked mother, Isabella of Castile, will have told her to deny Arthur so that she can marry without a dispensation, so she can be a virgin bride.”
