The inspiration for the critically acclaimed Starz miniseries The White Queen, #1 New York Times bestselling author Philippa Gregory brings to life the extraordinary story of Elizabeth Woodville, a woman who rises from obscurity to become Queen of England, and changes the course of history forever.

Elizabeth Woodville is a woman of extraordinary beauty and ambition. Her mother is Jacquetta, also known as the mystical lady of the rivers, and she is even more determined to bring power and wealth to the family line. While riding in the woods one day, Elizabeth captures the attentions of the newly crowned King Edward IV and, despite her common upbringing, marries him in secret.

When she is raised up to be his queen, the English court is outraged, but Elizabeth rises to the demands of her exalted position and fights for her family’s dominance. Yet despite her best efforts, and even with the help of her mother’s powers, her two sons become pawns in a famous unsolved mystery that has confounded historians for centuries: the lost princes in the Tower of London.

In this dazzling account of the deadly Wars of the Roses, brother turns on brother to win the ultimate prize: the throne of England.©2009 Philippa Gregory Limited; (P)2009 Simon & Schuster

Wonderful Story

The book was almost identical to the television series. However it was missing some of the drama. You did not get a sense of how it was for women in that era. The book was good but I would have liked a little more to draw me in.

Book vs. T.V. series

I read this a long time ago and then watched the STARZ series. Then I downloaded the Audible version and love Bianca Amato. I travel so Audible is perfect. This series of books by Philippa Gregory are so character rich and the stories are full of excitement. Great time.

Love this series

The White Queen reminds me of a fairy-tail because of the alleged magic use. I read The Red Queen first so I found it quite fascinating when the stories and scenes intersected.

In response to the book's historical usefulness, I agree with Catherine's "Be Fair" comment. I do not speak for all Americans but, for many, keeping track of Britain's history consisted mostly of studying for school tests in the distant past.

To draw a parallel, when the television series The Tudors debuted, the critics repeated how the history was "bastardized" and "Americanized." Maybe this is true; however, I found the subject fascinating enough to look up the history (and stumble across a review all but equating "bastardized" and "Americanized").

I am still intrigued by Britain's history. I am not expert enough to read the books wished for by other commentators that are full of historical facts, as I do understand all of Gregory's references; however, I am interested and am exploring. I appreciate learning about Britain's history while listening to an intriguing work of fiction.

I've seen the show and was hoping for more detail on the book. IT IS EXACTLY what the show is. No need to waste a credit if you've watched the show. I would have returned it, but I've been in a funk & returned too many!

LOVED THE SHOW...so if you haven't watched definitely listen!!

if you watched the show, no need to listen

Not sure what is left out, but this seems to be abridged and based on the Starz tv show. Very disappointed. Should be a disclaimer stating it’s abridged. I want full books!

Not the full book?!

I found this listen to be an enjoyable introduction to the history of the war of the roses. I couldn't resist looking up the history and family tree online after finishing the book.

Enjoyable

Written and ready extremely well. The characters were portrayed well and the subtle differences in the voices of each character were easy to distinguish which made picturing the dialogue and scenes easy in my mind!

Excellent

loving this series, disappointed to find out at the end that it was abridged for audio.

Didn't realise it was abridged for audio

The war of the roses is a very interesting and significant period of English royal history. Both Margaret Beaufort and Elizabeth Woodville are key in this historic period, and following the latter in this book is an interesting perspective.

The perspective of the white queen and the choices she is faced with making is impeccably translated and managed to transfix me.

I love some historical fiction
