This is the fourth and final book in the series. Wars of the Roses sure were crazy times. I've randomly known about many of the events, like the princes in the Tower, but never knew how they all tied together. There were a lot of characters with similar names like Henry or Edward and I was sometimes really confused. The book was good in places and boring in others. I'm actually really happy I persevered with it and was able to finish the series.

The fourth and final book in the Wars of the Roses series and it did not disappoint! I have enjoyed this series so much! You know what‘s going to happen and yet you feel like you have no idea what‘s going to happen! To live through that time would have been crazy! You could not make this stuff up! The battles were my favourite bits; Iggulden wrote them so well you could picture everything and feel nervous with the characters! Highly recommend!

DGRachel @Andrew65 I am confident that at least three of these are going to be phenomenal. The other four are complete unknowns. 8y
Andrew65 Which three? I wonder if I can guess right! 8y
