The Tudor Bride

De: Joanna Hickson

Narrado por: Maggie Mash

The thrilling story of the French princess who became an English queen, from the best-selling author of The Agincourt Bride. Perfect for fans of The White Queen.

Even the greatest of queens have rules – to break them would cost her dearly…

King Henry V’s new French Queen, Catherine, dazzles the crowds in England but life at court is full of intrigue and her loyal companion, Mette, suspects that the beautiful Eleanor Cobham, protégée of the Duke of Gloucester, is spying for him.

Catherine believes herself invincible as she gives birth to an heir, then tragically King Henry is struck down by fever. Unable to outwit those who seek to remove the new king from her care, Catherine retires from court, comforted by the King’s Harper, Owen Tudor.

At the secluded manor of Hadham a smouldering ember bursts into flame and Catherine and Owen Tudor become lovers. But their love cannot remain a secret forever, and when a grab for power is made by Gloucester, Catherine – and those dearest to her – face mortal danger…

The worst narrator on Audible!

It was true torture listening to this book. I have listened to more than 1000 audiobooks and never have I heard such stilted narration. Whoever made the decision to have the narrator use French accents really should seek a different line of work. It ruined the entire experience. I very much enjoyed the first novel in this series, The Agincourt Bride. Even though it takes place entirely in France, the wonderful narration did not effect French accents. I was eagerly awaiting this sequel. Sadly, I foolishly failed to listen to the preview. I assumed that the narrator would be the same. Don't make my mistake! Maybe one day the publisher will decide to record this a second time. C'est la vie!
