This is the first installment in the on the Wars of the Roses series, the struggle between Lancastrians and Yorkists for the throne of England and the right to succession following the death in 1377 of Edward III.
Mr Iggulden has written historical sagas before including the Emperor and the Conqueror series, but the 15th century English setting is a new departure. This book a good novel of the prelude to, and beginning of the Wars of the Roses.
