More Than Just Six Wives...

Publisher's Summary
A novel filled with fresh insights into the story of Henry VIII's second - and most infamous - wife, Anne Boleyn. The new book in the epic Six Tudor Queens series, from the acclaimed historian and best-selling author of Katherine of Aragon.
It is the spring of 1527. Henry VIII has come to Hever Castle in Kent to pay court to Anne Boleyn. He is desperate to have her. For this mirror of female perfection he will set aside his queen and all Cardinal Wolsey's plans for a dynastic French marriage.
Anne Boleyn is not so sure. She loathes Wolsey for breaking her betrothal to the Earl of Northumberland's son, Harry Percy, whom she had loved. She does not welcome the king's advances; she knows that she can never give him her heart. But hers is an opportunist family. And whether Anne is willing or not, they will risk it all to see their daughter on the throne.

Good book but has some inaccuracy
Well written and narrated but does have some things that are just plain untrue, such as the fact Anne had an extra finger. It is however written on a yearly basis so it does cover some of the less know things about Anne and her family.

Boring and unappealing.
I tried to struggle through it and finish, but alas. The worst historical novel I have ever tried to read/listen. The portrayal of Anne Boleyn and other characters is just the most boring in every way. I hope I can return this book.
