Publisher's Summary

Sunday Times bestselling novelist Alison Weir returns with the spellbinding story of Mary I.

A DESTINY REWRITTEN. A ROYAL HEART DIVIDED.

Adored only child of Henry VIII and his Queen, Katherine of Aragon, Princess Mary is raised in the golden splendour of her father's court. But the King wants a son and heir.

With her parents' marriage, and England, in crisis, Mary's perfect world begins to fall apart. Exiled from the court and her beloved mother, she seeks solace in her faith, praying for her father to bring her home. But when the King does promise to restore her to favour, his love comes with a condition.

The choice Mary faces will haunt her for years to come - in her allegiances, her marriage and her own fight for the crown. Can she become the queen she was born to be?

MARY I. HER STORY.

Alison Weir's new Tudor novel is the tale, full of drama and tragedy, of how a princess with such promise, loved by all who knew her, became the infamous Bloody Mary.

Great to have a story from. Mary's point of view!

I enjoyed Mary I Queen of Sorrows. it was nice to have a book that was taken from her point of view. too often is she see just as Bloody Mary without understanding what drove her to that point of many years of emotional torment and mistreatment at the hands of her Father and to an extent her Mother with the constant fight to have her take a side.

it was also good to get an insight into what likely went through her mind during her two false pregnancies, as well as her treatment at the hands of her husband who cared only about what Mary could give him as a King.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
