About this listen

Margaret Beaufort's story continues in The Beaufort Woman.

As the struggle between York and Lancaster continues, Margaret Beaufort fights for admittance to the court of the victorious Edward IV of York and his unpopular queen, Elizabeth Woodville. The old king and his heir are dead, leaving only Margaret's son, the exiled Henry Tudor, with a tenuous claim to the throne. The royal nursery is full, with two small princes securing York's continuing rule. But Edward and Elizabeth's magnificent court hides a dark secret, a deception that threatens the security of the English throne...and all who lust after it.

With the untimely death of the king, Margaret finds herself at the heart of chain of events that threaten the supremacy of York and will change England forever. The Beaufort Woman: one woman's selfless struggle for the rights of her son.

meh

a bit sappy. Margaret by all accounts was a more conniving and strong woman. She was so sappy, whinny and weak.

Not as good as the first in the series

The narrator sounds like an older woman and is not a good choice in my opinion. Margaret Beaufort was in her teens and twenties during the period that this book covers, but the narrator sounds like she’s in her sixties at least. She doesn’t do a bad job, but she would be better for a character that’s way older.

I listened to this on audible and the voice is perfect. this author has me thinking of Margaret beaufort in a new way. I am disappointed the 3rd book isn't in audible but I got it in kindle unlimited. I highly recommended this!

Great storyline and book

I loved listening to the book. The story was well written; however, the performance (narration) was lacking in parts. For instance I can hear pages turning periodically. That in itself is distracting.

So Unrealistic

Most of the characters, especially Margaret, seem unrealistic compared with every other book I've read.
