Conn Iggulden Wars of the Roses Series 4 Books Collection Set (Stormbird, Trinity, Ravenspur, Bloodline)

Product Information

Just substitute the names and make it some fantasy kingdom and not England/France and fantasy readers would gobble it up. The brilliant retelling of the Wars of the Roses continues with Bloodline, the gripping third novel in the new series from historical fiction master Conn Iggulden. I look forward to reading the rest of the series and to see how he approaches the Wars of the Roses.

Yet there are those, such as the Plantagenet Richard, Duke of York, who believe England must be led by a strong king if she is to survive.This has seen him amass an audience from all across the world, with readers from far and wide discovering his work every day. I don’t know that this will replace my favorite book by Conn Iggulden, because Wolf of the Plains is a truly special story.

There's not much more I could say about this, it's a first installment in a longish series, and it does show because a lot is left underdeveloped or hanging out there by a cliff so you go pick the next book up. Set in the year 1437 when Henry VI was acceding to the throne Conn Igguldens new series follows The War of The Roses.

His desire for peace at any cost is presented as playing into the French hands and directly leading to the loss of Normandy.
