As storm clouds gather over England, King Henry and his supporters find themselves besieged abroad and at home. With a secret deal struck for Henry to marry a young French noblewoman, Margaret of Anjou, those fears become all too real. With England's territories in France under threat, and rumours of revolt at home, fears grow that Henry and his advisers will see the country slide into ruin. Yet there are those, such as the Plantagenet Richard, Duke of York, who believe England must be led by a strong king if she is to survive. His poor health and frailty of mind render him a weakling king - Henry depends on his closest men, Spymaster Derry Brewer and William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk, to run his kingdom. In 1437, after years of regency, the pious and gentle Henry VI, the Lamb, comes of age and accedes to the English throne. King Henry V - the great Lion of England - is long dead. Historical fiction master Conn Iggulden retells the gripping story of the English civil war in his new Wars of the Roses series.
