Jane Seymour, The Haunted Queen

I recently finished my NetGalley copy of Alison Weir's fabulous new novel JANE SEYMOUR: THE HAUNTED QUEEN.  Wow, what a fantastic story.  I've always thought of Jane Seymour as a mousy, quiet woman.  A woman who was the antithesis of Anne Boleyn.  The calm after the storm.  Well, this book throws all my preconceived ideas out the window.  I have no doubt she was the calm after the storm that was Anne Boleyn, but she was no shrinking violet, either.  The Jane Seymour portrayed by Alison Weir (one of THE BEST historical novelist I've ever read), is a calm, but highly intelligent young woman.  One who happened to catch the eye of Henry.  The only woman who was able to give him the son and heir he required and craved.  She was full of life and joy, but the title tells it all.  She was haunted.  There is an element of the supernatural in this book.  She is haunted by a dark figure; she feels partly responsible for the death of ...

my thoughts:

A truly amazing story!  I think this book, which completes the tale, is the best of all.  It brings an amazingly well written puzzle to a stunning conclusion.  This book is so full of  twists and turns, it's like riding a roller coaster, and believe me- it's as fun and thrilling as a coaster ride.   I love the manner in which Kari Edgren completed the story.  She is a masterful storyteller, who managed to thrill, intrigue and astound all at once.   

This is truly an amazing trilogy, and this book, AN IMMORTAL DESCENT, is the best of the three.  I was captivated and entranced by the tale.  

This book, this trilogy, is a rarity.  It is unique, fascinating and sensational all at once.  The characters, both good and evil, will capture your heart.  

Get all three books, take them to the beach with you this summer, but beware...you'll get a sunburn as you lose track of time while reading.  You won't want to put the books down until finished!  Now that I've finished the book, I'm going  back and starting over with the first!   

5/5 stars and a new addition to the BEYOND 5 STARS page.
