We haven’t had a better novel about Parliament since Anthony Trollope

Political heavy book

Good insight into political or kings but gets rather tedious at times. But you have to stay focused as there are a large amount of central charaxhters.

A little disjointed...

Jeffrey Archer novels span a large footprint on the space-time continuum. That said, he does tend to wander, and sometimes leaves storylines hanging. In this book, for example, the Queen makes a proclamation which Archer goes to great lengths to lay out in terms of the principals involved, and how the proclamation is received by all, but the proclamation itself is never revealed. Being as it comes toward the end of the book, it is a letdown. Other than that flaw, it is a decent read.

No solid plotline

Not my kind of story. the stort follows the life of several gentlemen and rambles on about the details of British politics. but I don't know where the author is heading.
