Publisher Description
Penguin presents the unabridged, downloadable audiobook edition of Wars of the Roses: Trinity, The second instalment in Conn Iggulden's thrilling Wars of the Roses trilogy
1454: King Henry VI has remained all but exiled in Windsor Castle, struck down by his illness for over a year, his eyes vacant, his mind a blank.
His fiercely loyal wife and Queen, Margaret of Anjou, safeguards her husband's interests, hoping that her son Edward will one day know the love of his father.
Richard Duke of York, Protector of the Realm, extends his influence throughout the kingdom with each month that Henry slumbers. The Earls of Salisbury and Warwick make up a formidable trinity with Richard, and together they seek to break the support of those who would raise their colours in the name of Henry and his Queen.
But when the King unexpectedly recovers his senses and returns to London to reclaim his throne, the balance of power is once again thrown into turmoil.
The clash of the Houses of Lancaster and York will surely mean a war to tear England apart . . .
Customer Reviews
Gathering Strength, In The Gathering Storm
An improvement on the previous novel, which was more than good enough, and read just as skilfully by the same, flawless narrator. This story feels more complete, with a stronger sense of a satisfying conclusion.
The war begun, the plot lines darkening, and character arks lengthening, what’s not to love? Muddy, bloody gore spattered armour, clever story telling, great pacing and superbly complex characters; all of whom are both sympathetic and repellant by turns.
Conn Iggulden has found his stride by now, and seems to be in a comfort zone of story telling. Cracking stuff
