Review of "The Boleyn King"

The Boleyn King  - Laura Andersen

Not what I expected and very little seemed "Tudor" or "Boleyn."

 

More just another historical romance.  Pretty ordinary for the genre.

 

Eventually -- according to book descriptions -- series moves more into Elizabeth Tudor; I might like those books more.  There was little of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn in this book wth half-sisters Mary and Elizabeth seldom in it.  

 

The premise still intrigues me -- and I can borrow rest of series from library -- where I'll likely read a bit more of the series.
