<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> Includes a reading group guide with discussion questions, an interview with the author, and book club enhancement suggestions. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> From #1 <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author Philippa Gregory, the little-known story of three Tudor women who are united in sisterhood and yet compelled to be rivals when they fulfill their destinies as queens. <p/>As sisters they share an everlasting bond; as queens they can break each other's hearts... <p/>When Katherine of Aragon is brought to the Tudor court as a young bride, the oldest princess, Margaret, takes her measure. With one look, each knows the other for a rival, an ally, a pawn, destined--with Margaret's younger sister Mary--to a unique sisterhood. The three sisters will become the queens of England, Scotland, and France. <p/>United by family loyalties and affections, the three queens find themselves set against each other. Katherine commands an army against Margaret and kills her husband James IV of Scotland. But Margaret's boy becomes heir to the Tudor throne when Katherine loses her son. <p/>Mary steals the widowed Margaret's proposed husband, but when Mary is widowed it is her secret marriage for love that is the envy of the others. As they experience betrayals, dangers, loss, and passion, the three sisters find that the only constant in their perilous lives is their special bond, more powerful than any man, even a king. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "A fictional tale as steeped in history as it is in intrigue and family dysfunction....Gregory excels in plucking real-life women out of their secondary places in the historical chorus and placing them stage center in starring roles."-- "Booklist" </br></br>"Mesmerizing, intimate...Gregory defines what it means to be a writer of historical fiction. She lures readers straight into the hearts and minds of her characters by masterful storytelling and brilliant reimagination blended with historical fact. She brings history to life."-- "RT Book Reviews" </br></br>"Nobody shines a light on the women of Tudor history like Philippa Gregory...
