Ravenspur

Rise of the Tudors

De: Conn Iggulden

Narrado por: John Curless

Witness the rise of the Tudor dynasty in this concluding volume to Conn Iggulden's vigorous and commanding retelling of the Wars of the Roses.

England, 1470. A divided kingdom cannot stand. King Edward of York has been driven out of England. Queen Elizabeth and her children tremble in sanctuary at Westminster Abbey. The House of Lancaster has won the crown, but York will not go quietly.

Desperate to reclaim his throne, Edward lands at Ravenspur with a half-drowned army and his brother Richard at his side. Every hand is against them, every city gate is shut, yet the brothers York go on the attack. But neither sees that their true enemy is Henry Tudor, now grown into a man. As the Red Dragon - "the man of destiny" - his claim to the throne leads to Bosworth Field and a battle that will bring an end to the Wars of the Roses....

Rise of the Tudors Series

Every single book in this series kept me enthralled. The narration is excellent as well. I’ll be listening to every series by Mr. Iggulden.

good storytelling

the story as a whole is what i enjoyed. This author does a masterful job with Historical Fiction

Excellent historical novel

As with all of Conn Iggulden's books, this one is well researched, beautifully written, enjoyable and informative. I highly recommend this book and the entire War of the Roses series.

Great saga

It's a little confusing but well worth the effort to persist with the story. There are many twists and turns.

Terrific Series!

Wonderful historical fiction! If you like the genre, you’ll love this Series & Mr Iggulden, in general. This Series takes place primarily in England over the roughly 40-wars of the War of the Roses in the mid- to late-15th Century, where nearly constant Civil War tore the country apart, leading, eventually, to the founding of the Tudor line. Difficult & interesting times with strong & flawed historical characters at its very heart! Highly Recommended!
