"God save the Queen! God save our good Queen Mary"! When these words rang out over England, Mary Tudor thought her troubles were over. She could put her painful past - the loss of her mother and mistreatment at the hands of her father - behind her. With her accession to the throne, Mary set out to restore Catholicism in England and find the love of a husband that she had long desired. But the tragedies in Mary's life were far from over. How did a gentle, pious woman become known as "Bloody Mary"?

I tend to prefer books narrated by the author as they have less of a ‘performance’ feel to it but Stier’s voice is really soothing and gets you right in the story. I love period pieces. This book delivers!

Beautiful narration

I loved this book. It painted Mary Tudor in a new light. She was no longer "Bloody Mary" for me. She was a living, multidimensional woman doing the best she could in very difficult times. I had a great deal more empathy for her after reading this book.
The narrator...hmmm. She spoke at a good clip so I put the speed of her narration at 0.9. This helped me understand her better, but her pronunciation was still off. She just didn't sound right. I was able to get used to it and it didn't detract from the book.
All in all, it was a book series and I highly recommend you get it.

Fantastic book.
