I loved this book! There aren‘t any historical sources for what happened to Boudicca‘s daughters after her death. But I loved this tale for potential. I love anything to do with Boudicca, but always have a little cry for her demise. And always remember, history is written by the winners- how can she be a rebel in her own country. ♥️
