About this listen

Alison Weir, historian and author of the Sunday Times best-selling Six Tudor Queens series, recounts the story of Henry VIII's last wife - Katharine Parr, the queen who survived him.

A woman torn between love and duty.

Two husbands dead, a boy and a sick man. And now Katharine is free to make her own choice.

The ageing king's eye falls upon her. She cannot refuse him...or betray that she wanted another.

She becomes the sixth wife - a queen and a friend. Henry loves and trusts her. But Katharine is hiding another secret in her heart, a deeply held faith that could see her burn....

Katharine Parr. Henry's final queen. Her story.

Renowned, best-selling historian Alison Weir reveals a warm, clever woman of great fortitude who rose boldly to every turn her life took.

Critic Reviews

"This brilliant series has brought Henry VIII's six wives to life as never before. This novel will enthral and inspire, just as much as it will break your heart." (Tracy Borman)

"Katharine Parr deserves better than to be known just as Henry VIII's sixth wife - the one who survived. And there's no-one better placed than Alison Weir to restore her to her rightful place." (Sarah Gristwood)

This book completes the series on Henry 8th’s wives. Beautifully written and narrated. Amazing talent from Alison Weir. I especially loved the clear explanation of the doctrinal differences between the Roman Catholic and Lutheran./Evangelical.

Wow, wonderful books

Ms Weirs love affair with Tudors is more akin to a fairy tale than the real issue of a king that both abused and murdered his wives. The excuse of its was done in those times and ‘they knew no better’ does not gel. It was just as wrong then as it is now. This is historical fiction at both its best insofar as entertainment value only and at its very worst as romantic fluff. Read it with care. Read real history over a board spectrum of commentators for a better grasp of the subject.

Once again..
