Great listen!

I really enjoyed this book. I was interested because of the subject of the book. I’ve yet to see another historical fiction centered on Owen Tudor and thought the author did a great job of bringing the love story of him and Katherine of Valois to life!

Different narrator needed

Loved the book, did not love the narration. Ian Fisher had to many stumbles or mispronunciation, and that kills the story for me.

And So It Begins

Was very interesting to start from the beginning of the Tudor trilogy. To read about Owen Tudor and then to know when his grandson was born to be given the name Henry Tudor. Can't wait for the rest of the series.

Love this stuff.

But it had some inaccuracies that didn't make sense. It wasn't enough to make me stop listening because it was a good listen. I just don't understand the point of killing off his daughter Margaret as a newborn. It's nowhere near as shameful as Showtime's The Tudors mishmashing Margaret and Mary into one person-and I didn't stop watching-but still. Ah well. There's not much out there that focuses on Owen and Jasper, so, for that, I'm grateful to Mr. Riches.

Wow. It doesn’t get better than this

I’ve never even heard of tony riches much less read his books What have I missed.?..I so enjoyed this book the historical details and the food the royals ate. The American listeners will be astounded to read the menu. Mr riches made every sentence interesting and important. I look so forward to book 2 of the Tudor trilogy. The British history can be a little complicated with so many factions and civil war but he made them more simple to understand. I highly recommend this audio book. You won’t. Be sorry
