The Tudor Throne by Brandy Purdy - ARCs available
Thursday, February 24, 2011
Want to read The Tudor Throne by Brandy Purdy before it's released in late June? Brandy has some ARCs available to people who are interested and are willing to post a review either on a blog, Amazon, Barnes and Noble or even an appropriate book discussion forum in June or July. Brandy would also like the review to mention that the book is being published in the UK under a different title and a slight change to her name (Mary and Elizabeth by Emily Purdy).
Summary: In the wake of King Henry VIII's death, England’s throne is left in a precarious state-as is the peculiar relationship between his two daughters. Mary, the elder, once treasured, had been declared a bastard in favor of her flame-haired half-sister, Elizabeth, born of the doomed Anne Boleyn. Yet the bond between the sisters was palpable from the start. Now reinstated, Mary eventually assumes her place as queen. But as Mary’s religious zeal evolves into a reign of terror, young Elizabeth gains the people’s favor. Gripped by a tormenting paranoia, Mary is soon convinced that her beloved Elizabeth is in fact her worst enemy. And the virginal Elizabeth, whose true love is her country, must defy her tyrannical sister to make way for a new era...
A brilliant portrait of the rule of "Bloody Mary” and her intricate relationship with Elizabeth I, the adored "Virgin Queen,” here is a riveting tale of one family's sordid and extraordinary chapter in the pages of history.
This offer is available to US residents only. If interested, please email Brandy directly at bkpbooks at yahoo dot com and include where you would post the review and your complete mailing address. The supply is limited, so it's first come first served.
