Devil's Brood

De: Sharon Kay Penman

Narrado por: Anne Flosnik

A.D. 1172. Henry II’s three eldest sons conspire against him and align themselves with his greatest enemy, King Louis of France, but it’s Eleanor of Aquitaine’s involvement in the plot to overthrow her husband that proves to be the harshest betrayal. As a royal family collapses and a marriage ends in all but name, the clash between these two strong-willed and passionate souls will have far-reaching and devastating consequences throughout Christendom.

Devil’s Brood, a breathtaking and sweeping epic of a family at its breaking point, shows how two monumental figures once bound by all-consuming love became the bitterest of adversaries.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“[Sharon Kay] Penman does a remarkable job of depicting passionate, dramatic characters and the perilous times in which they live. For those who like their historical fiction as complex and tightly woven as a medieval tapestry, this book cannot fail to please.”—Library Journal, starred review

“Teeming with characters and authentic period detail, the novel is part splendid pageant and part history lecture.”—Booklist

“Penman writes about the medieval world and its people with vigor, compassion and clarity.”—San Francisco Chronicle

“A story so immediate and real that you’ll feel like you’ve lived it.”—Historical Novels Review

Sharon’s writings brings to life Henry and his family in a fascinating way! She treats all family members fairly!

The book brought to life and gave a glimpse of a family that was filled with turmoil and intrigue! No modern family drama comes close to what Henry and his brood endured!

Captivating

I love the story, the detail given each character was wonderful. Great research by the writer.

A fantastic listen. I was worried it might not grab me or hold my attention, but I could not stop listening and the writing and performance exceeded all expectation.

Fantastic

Sharon Did It Again

This was an excellent conclusion to the trilogy of King Henry!! Loved every bit of every book. Think the first one is still my favorite one but all of them are very good and very informative! As always I love her touch at the end touching on all the spots where she took creative liberties for the story sake and actual accounts historically. Will always be a fan of her historical novels! Keep them coming Sharon!!
