This book, I don't know what to say.Maybe if you are a die hard Jane Seymour and like to see her in a more powerful position as a poisoner, spy and early feminist heroine you will enjoy this book.I skipped over the 'modern' parts of the book after suffering a couple of chapters and only listened to the parts set in the 1500s.Most of the people named there has existed, but that's it.To say it shortly I thought it was dumb. / A historian
