Purchase options and add-ons

A king torn between two women could lead to a kingdom torn.

Troubled by religious unrest in his kingdom and changing alliances with other countries, weighing most on King Henry VIII of England's mind is his impending divorce to Queen Katherine of Aragon. The matter is of extreme urgency, as the king desires an heir and has just met the woman who holds his destiny -- Lady Anne Boleyn, eighteen and in the flower of youthful beauty. But was their meeting by chance, or part of a plan devised by her father for the furthering of his family?

As the new romance blooms, it causes heartache for the queen and headaches for the king's personal chaplain, Cardinal Wolsey, who once worked on behalf of the kingdom to organize diplomatic talks, but now toils to obtain the Church's approval for the king's divorce. As loyalties are questioned and the Church's influence is threatened by the emboldened king, the fate of the kingdom lies in the balance.

An irresistible story of love, lust, ambition, and political intrigue, this novelization of season one of
The Tudors introduces us to a young, virile king of one of the most powerful nations in the world, and the women who will cause him to forever alter the course of history.

Review

Highly readable and very entertaining. This novelization hits the show's scandalous entanglements, teases out its conspiracies, and does justice to its violent beauty.

I own season 1 and season 2 dvds. I also have the books. They are all wonderful. I couldn't put them down. Well written and very sexy. They seem to be about word for word of the dvds.I just can't recommend them enough!You will love them!The dvds are amazing as well-VERY SEXY!!

Entertaining novel adapted from the Showtime series. It was easy reading and since I saw the series first before reading the book I had a different visual of King Henry VIII. I thought of Jonathan Ryhs as the king rather than the slovenly, homely man he was said to be in most historical novels.
Reviewed in the United States on February 22, 2009
If you love the Showtime show The Tudors, then you should read this book. It is a historical fiction novel based on (and sometimes is word for word) from the first season of The Tudors. It is provocative and captivating, just like the show. It's a quick read so it's a great beach read or for when you want to escape for awhile.

If you are not a fan of the show or have never seen it but are interested in historical fiction or novels based off of shows or movies, then you will probably like this book.

This is a pretty good book, nothing too deep or thought provoking but it is interesting and does give you a sense of what Henry VIII was like and Anne Boleyn.

this was a fair read.. but left me thinking more was fiction than history. probably a good thing as much has been written about henry and his women. . this book did make him and his people more lifelike than most.
