kstep1805 's review for:
The King's Curse
by Philippa Gregory
Maybe I wouldn't have enjoyed this book as much had I not listened to it, but I really got into it. So much so that different roads, that I travel frequently, have become associated with settings in the book. I haven't enjoyed many of her books since her earlier Tudor novels: The Other Boleyn Girl, The Constant Princess, The Queens Fool, and The Virgin's Lover. They've been pretty unremarkable since then but this one caught me up in all the intrigue. I hated Henry VIII, hated him. I loved that it elicited such intense emotion from me. The reader was fantastic and interestingly enough, when I pulled up Margaret Pole on Wikipedia, I really felt like the reader's voice brought up in my mind a pretty good likeness of her. So I'll definitely look to listen to Gregory's books from now on.
