Definitely one of the strongest instalments in the series.
This follows the progression of Henry VIII from a young and promising Prince, to the brutal, paranoid despot he ended up, all told through the life of Margaret Pole.
I always like that these stories are often told from the point of view of someone outside of the immediate royal family, so we get a sense of the goings on of a household, political maneuvering and drama but also the family life of those in the court.
