About this listen

The Serpent of Division features murder and mystery, a charming pirate, Oxford colleges and libraries, a buxom bookseller reminiscent of the Wife of Bath and a Persian physician with a fondness for Rumi. All have a part to play, as the granddaughter of Geoffrey Chaucer fights for survival against her ruthless neighbour Sir Robert Harcourt and the machinations of Elizabeth Wydeville, descendant of the serpent fairy Melusine and queen of Edward IV. It is set during the politically rocky final years of the Wars of the Roses.

I loved this book about Geoffrey Chaucer's granddaughter, the Duchess Alyce Chaucer. The story flows along beautifully and the characters are well developed. Christina Hardyment obviously did her research and provided lots of details about the royal machinations during the War of the Roses as well as how a household was run during the 15th Century. Mostly you should read it because it's so much fun.

What a great historical mystery
