The King's Daughter by Barbara Kyle

3.0

Review - Although the characters are largely fictional (exceptions being Mary I and the Imperial ambassador Renard) they seem real and you can connect with them - the love, loyalty and familial devotion are all too common. A very different take on Tudor times using one of the most famous events of Mary I's reign; the Wyatt rebellion of 1554. The author claims that the timespan is real in general and this adds some reality to the story. It's easy to read this as not part of a series.
