De: Robert Hardman

Narrado por: Robert Hardman

No British monarch has had a tougher act to follow. Now, after seventy years of waiting and preparation, King Charles III is not just the head of the most famous family in the world. He is the custodian of a thousand-year-old institution that must redefine its place in the digital age while others insist on rewriting the past. With unrivaled access to the king, the royal family, and the court, leading royal authority Robert Hardman brings us the inside story on the most pivotal and challenging year for the monarchy in living memory. From the death of Elizabeth II through to the ancient spectacle of the Coronation, from the rise of a new Prince and Princess of Wales to the latest truth bombs from the Sussexes, this is the story of the making of a monarch.

Riveting flow and wonderful detail.

I love the way the author balances his riveting retelling of the King of England’s accession to the throne and the “headwinds” encountered, without getting preachy or biased. He could have been much harsher with describing the shenanigans of Prince Harry and his ghost writers, but keeps it dignified and entertaining at the same time! A good read.

Narrator’s voice.

Great read . Thank you for a wonderful in depth story! Look forward to your next book!

Common ground with truthfulness

I've veen waiting in anticipation for this book. It was well worth the wait! When everyone seems to have their 'truth' it is heartfelt to have an author write truthfully. I have the Audible's edition but I have to have a hard copy. ..it's that good. Thank you.

Fascinating knowledge

Of all the books I have read, this one stands out. The organization, crisp presentation and knowledge is excellent. Upon seeing the book was narrated by the author, my first thought was oh no! But Robert Hardman narrated it beautifully.

Good but a little biased

It didn’t provide a contrast and compare very well, but shed light on some of the whiners.
