    Looking through the lens of their Spanish origins, Fox reveals these queens as flesh-and-blood women—equipped with character, intelligence, and conviction—who are worthy historical figures in their own right. Sister Queens is a gripping tale of love, duty, and sacrifice—a remarkable reflection on the conflict between ambition and loyalty during an age when the greatest sin, it seems, was to have been born a woman.

    Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

    I would recommend this to anyone interested in history! I love the Tudor period, and was quite interested in a story from "the other side".


    What about Rosalyn Landor’s performance did you like?

    She reads very well, really draws one into the story.

    Story

    For the first time in decades, here, in a single volume, is a fresh look at the fabled Tudor dynasty, comprising some of the most enigmatic figures ever to rule a country. Acclaimed historian G. J. Meyer reveals the flesh-and-bone reality in all its wild excess.

    Would you consider the audio edition of The Tudors to be better than the print version?

    I would! I listen mostly on my commute to work, reading on the bus sometimes makes me sick. Having the opportunity to listen to the book I was dying to read was an awesome choice!


    Who was your favorite character and why?

    Anne Boleyn, although she doesn't get as much story time (for obvious reasons).


    What does Robin Sachs bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

    His awesome voice :)


    Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

    If that were possible, yes! However it's over 24 hours long, so thats not really an option :)
