Thomas Cromwell is now very far from his humble beginnings. He is Henry VIII's chief minister. Katherine of Aragorn is no longer Queen. The Princess Mary has been disinherited. Anne Boleyn wears the crown and has produced a daughter, Elizabeth. But there is no sign of a son and Henry is beginning to regret his secession from Rome. We pick up from [[Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel|Wolf Hall]] during the royal progress of 1535 and from there, we chart the destruction of the new Queen.
If you're looking for equally classy fiction in the historical genre, we can recommend [[The Master of Bruges by Terence Morgan]], [[The Book of Human Skin by Michelle Lovric]] and [[The Long Song by Andrea Levy]]. They're three very different books, but you won't forget any of them in a hurry.
