Wars of the Roses: Bloodline: The Wars of the Roses, Book 3

Conn Iggulden can be depended upon to craft an excellent historical drama and has done so again here. I have only held back from five stars for the story as I suspect he has even greater heights to scale and I want to save a little something for the moment...
What is always less certain with an audio book is the quality of the narration. Speaking as the owner of an almost shamefully large audiobook library, I can say that there are few who can bring such stories to life as Roy McMillan. He manages this without panto dramatics or over-stretched character portrayals, just a thorough understanding of tempo, pitch and plot. Brilliant.

The second episode of the trilogy is as thrilling as the first. It is fascinating to see the complexity of history spun in such an engaging way. The characters are a synthesis of the real and the imagined. They are vivid and believable.
The thrill of the battle scene is awesome and horrific.
Historical fiction at its best.

It is such a powerful story, brought to life by the super narration.

I just can't wait for the next installment.

Great story and wonderfully read by Roy McMillan who brings the story and characters to life, he draws you in so you forget you're being read to and feel as though you are in the story itself much like watching a great film, which is such an important quality in a good narrator. Fantastic author and amazing narrator, highly recommend both.

Loved the whole series. Masterful story telling and superb narration. Highly recommended in every way.

Conn Iggulden writes yet another great historic story. He writes with passion and his characters pull you into the great tale, winch is based on history.

Thoroughly enjoyable continuation of this fictional history. All that I said about the first two books still applies here. Keep at it Conn.

enjoy the book and the trilogy
but should have stayed with in the factual and more about Henry Tudor

Very good book, enjoyed it throughout. Also good narration. Will be looking for more of the author's work in the future.

I found this book the toughest to get though and if it hadn't been for such a SUPERB narrator I don't think I would have.. Seems odd to give the story a four as in reality there is nothing Conn can do about it this is the story but probably the least interesting part, am looking forward to plunging into the final instalment..
