I am loving the aliveness of this author's penmanship. I have read many books on Marie Antoinette and this one is brimming with life. The narrator is perfect, delightful voice!

This story had me captivated from first words uttered. It's hard to imagine it was narrated by only one woman, gosh, she was terrific....Bravo! The story itself had so many twists and turns. A hard story to have end....one is catapulted back in history.

History from the bedrooms of Versailles
Reviewed: 05-24-19
An intriguing view of the years leading up to the French Revolution from the side of those inside the palace all the way up through to King Louis VX and those who loved him. Blinded by privilege, ambition and dare I say greed.
Well written and nearly impossible to put down, either on page or via audible.
The audible version was amazingly well done, with one woman clearly doing all the voices, each one in their distinct character and tone, jumping from male to female with nary a split second between. It was so well narrated I consumed all three books in a short 2 weeks.
Congratulations on a job well done!
