I am loving the Tudor Saga so far! So much plotting, disappointment, and intrigue. No sex.just intrigue, politics and power plays. Plaidy takes history and fleshes out the scenes.puts the humanity, emotion and drama into it. I loved reading Plaidy's version.she creates a dramatic historical fiction picture of how things played out. Henry wants to divorce his wife and marry Anne Boleyn.and he's willing to do just about anything to accomplish that goal. There is a lot of political wrangling in this book. The King's Secret Matter is the 4th book (the last in a trilogy about Katharine of Aragon, Henry VIIIs first wife). I love the drama and politics of the Tudor Era.so I decided to start with Plaidy's Tudor Saga. I was so caught up in finding all the books that I never took the time to actually read them! Silly me! I can free up almost an entire bookcase of storage space in my library if I read my Plaidy books and donate them to charity. I have made it part of my annual reading goals this year to focus on Jean Plaidy. Several have been released in new editions though, so it's much easier to find her books now. At the time, her books were pretty much out of print.and hard to find. I read her Norman Trilogy years ago and loved it.so I started on a mission to collect every historical novel she wrote. I have been collecting Jean Plaidy novels for more than 10 years.
