Raven Queen

Cartea autorului *** „Raven Queen" de la editura USBORNE

I have lived the life of a princess since the day I was born. But it did not bring me what I wanted. I am still trapped.

My beloved Ned speaks of love, freedom, a future. To walk with him in the forest, our raven soaring above us, is my only joy. But my father plans that I shall be betrothed to the King and I am afraid. Queens of England have a habit of dying. I have no desire to take the throne, no wish to find myself in the Tower of London.

Wife, Queen - I fear it will bring me to my knees. A mesmerising tale of love and tragedy based on the life of Lady Jane Grey, all too often remembered as just a line in a history book. Reveals the treachery, power struggles, and religious turmoil of the Tudor Court. With internet links to recommended websites about the life and times of Lady Jane Grey. Winner of the Highland Childrens Book Award 2008 and shortlisted for the 2008 Leeds Book Awards 2008.
