In Saturday's mail I got an old one by Philippa Wiat, <I>The Heir of Allington</I>, that has someone other than Henry VIII fathering Elizabeth I.

The only other novel that does not represent her in a bad light is Robin Maxwell's The Hidden Diary of Anne Boleyn. I just started her November 2007 release Mademoiselle Boleyn, and I will let you know how it is. It only covers Anne's early life in the Hapsburg court and then France.<BR/><BR/>I don't know of any fallen king novels, but The Autobiography of Henry VIII by Margaret George is from his perspective, and that of his fool Will Somers. I found it an excellent read, and it makes his side of the story seem so relevant.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
