The Boleyn Inheritance is a perfect follow up to The Other Boleyn Girl. Philippa Gregory takes you back in history in such a rich and wonderful way that I have been recomending this book already to anyone I meet who loves either history or just reading a great author. Now I'm reading The Queen's... more info

2.The Other Boleyn GirlThe Other Boleyn Girl
from Touchstone
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
This is by far, the best book in the series. It had me hooked and I read every other book by Phillipa Gregory simply because this one is so good. I found the rest were not as good as this, but were wonderful too. This is simply not to be competed with.

from Touchstone
Price: $10.88

Customer Review:
I was a little disappointed. Primarily it's because I didn't like her portrait of Elizabeth. However accurate or inaccurate it may have been. Elizabeth is one of my heroes, but in this book she is whiny, capricious, indecisive, foolish..... I didn't like her at all. Allison Weir's portrait of the... more info

Fills us in on some of the goings-on between the death of Henry VIII and the reign of (following Edward and Mary) Elizabeth I. Good along the same lines as Phillipa Gregory's "The Other Boleyn Girl".

If you enjoy romantic historicals, you can't go wrong here. Just happen to be looking for another historical and another author, I picked up several of Mary Balogh's.

Customer Review:
So the second book in the series: "The favored child" was driven out and quite similiar to the previous, but it was still very interesting to read and kept me turning the pages. I've just started reading the last in the series. I hope this will end differently with more originality than the previous... more info
