suzemo 's review for:
The King's Curse
by Philippa Gregory
So, usual Philippa Gregory issues aside (repetitious writing, showing-not-telling, obsessive fixations, historical inaccuracies) aside, I think this is one of the better Tudor/Plantagenet novels.
Margaret Pole is the main protag of this one, and we go on and on about Mouldwarps and the curse of Elizabeth Woodville and Elizabeth York re: the bloodline for the killer(s) of the Princes in the Tower. I liked the focus on someone who managed to survive a longer time before some sociopath got around to killing her family.
Narrator (of course) was A+ (why I keep going through these books). It was entertaining, good for an airplane read, not great for, say, owning.
