Three Sisters, Three Queens (The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels)
Description
From 1 New York Times 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. As sisters they share
an everlasting bond; as queens they can break each other’s hearts… 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. 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. 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. Read more
