Summary
From the bestselling author of ‘The Other Boleyn Girl’, Philippa Gregory, comes a wonderfully atmospheric evocation of the court of Henry VIII and his final queens.


The Last Boleyn is Jane, Lady Rochford – widow of the disgraced George Boleyn. Caught in the intrigues of the Tudor court, she manoeuvres for personal position as her family in turn tries to manipulate her.


The king has married again; his bride is the deceptively astute Anne of Cleves. Her wits are tested as she senses a trap closing around her, with the Howards ready to take advantage of her fall. Central to their plot is the pretty, flirtatious Catherine, ready to take the place once held by her cousin Anne Boleyn.
Jane briefly believes that she will escape the fate of all who attempt to betray the royal trust but she reckons without Henry's growing maliciousness. Her fate is sealed; she will be the last Boleyn.


Philippa Gregory is the acknowledged queen of historical fiction and this novel again displays her trademark blend of passion and politics, authenticity and tremendously gripping storytelling.

I loved this book, both exciting and emotional from start to finish. I very much enjoyed having the three readers which made it easy to determine which character was talking. I would love to know which bits were by the authors license, it was an incredible insight into court life and absolutely fascinating. I was sorry when I finished it.

Absolutely brilliant to the point that I didn’t want it to end.

Another great book, I wish it was longer though! The narrator, I'm sorry to say, does female voices ok but especially Henry's voice was very off-putting.
