Renabur: Difficult, mesmerising reading gives way to the thrill of comprehension part way through the middle of the novel. The story that emerges is compelling. I did not expect to, but loved this book - a very happy surprise.

Renabur: A poignant, fascinating read about a period in the English monarchy that I knew little about. The writer indulges from time to time in long, speculative conclusions about people's motivations that appear to overtake the reported facts, but this can be ignored when it becomes excessive. On the whole this book stayed with me after I had finished reading it.
