Gregory, Philippa: The Taming of the Queen

The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels 11popis: Why would a woman marry a serial killer? Because she cannot refuse ...
Kateryn Parr has no choice when Henry VIII – a man who has buried four wives - commands her to marry him.
As a young widow with a secret lover, Kateryn knows full well the danger she faces. But Henry adores his new bride and her trust in him grows as she unites the royal family, creates a radical study circle at the heart of the court, and rules the kingdom as regent.
But is this enough to keep her safe? An independent woman
with a mind of her own, and the first woman to publish under her own name in English, Kateryn is an easy target for those who accuse her of heresy. The punishment is death by fire and the king's name is on the warrant.
From an author who has described all of Henry's queens comes a deeply intimate portrayal of the last: a woman who longed for passion, power and enlightenment at the court of a medieval killer.
