À propos de cet audio
The Bastard's Crown: William of Normandy's Rise to Power. From scorned bastard to England's conqueror, William of Normandy's ascent stands as history's ultimate tale of defiance and transformation. Through the eyes of the spy Guy de Valois, the ruthless enforcer Robert Boucher, and the vengeful Saxon noblewoman Mildritha, experience a meticulously researched saga of ambition and conquest. Listen as William forges personal trauma into political might, transforming medieval Britain through:
- Harold Godwinson's fateful oath
- The invasion of 1066
- The brutal aftermath of conquest
- Creation of the Domesday Book
- The St. Swithun's Day Massacre
- William's dramatic final days
This sweeping narrative spans two decades, from Normandy's shores to Constantinople's walls. Following both historical figures and compelling fictional characters, it explores power, legitimacy, and the price of ambition. Perfect for fans of Bernard Cornwell and Sharon Kay Penman, The Bastard's Crown offers a fresh perspective on how one man's determination to prove himself reshaped medieval England forever. Experience the intrigue, battles, and human drama that transformed a single year—1066—into a turning point that still echoes today.
