England without Elizabeth?

Unimaginable! That is why this book a the rise of Jasper Tudor is so interesting. Add to that Conn Iggulden’s inimitable style and what you have is a ringside seat to great battles, where you can see and feel everything without getting an arrow in this your gut for your pains.

What more can one ask for?

EXCEPT to request Mr. Iggulden to write his next book....quickly please!!

Slow paced for Conn Iggulden standards. Also, it is not really the rise of the Tudirs. This book barely covers Henry Tudors coronation. It should be named The Homecoming of Tudors or something like that. A fitting end to the War of the roses though.

Well written the last book of the series doesn't disappoint at all. But king Henry's background could have been more detailed.

A Superb Conclusion!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 10 June 2016

Verified Purchase

This wonderful book is the 4th volume of the "Wars of the Roses" series, and besides that it is also the final instalment of this marvellous series.
The book contains once again an immaculately researched Historical Note, while at the time it also possesses superbly explained Family Trees, from the Royal of England, to the Houses of Lancaster, York and the Nevilles, and last but not least the House of Tudor.
Not forgetting of course, is that this great book also contains a beautiful map of England at the time of the Wars of the Roses, while it also produces a wonderful list of Historical characters, who'll all excel in their own kind of way within this entertaining book.
Storytelling is, as it has always been throughout this series, of a top-notch quality, for once more all the characters, whether real or fictional, come vividly to life within this historical treat of a novel, and that's why I feel a kind of sad that it has now come to it's inevitable end.
The story continues, after the exile of Warwick and Clarence to France, in the year AD 1470 and it will end in the year AD 1485, with the coronation of Henry Tudor (VII), as King of England.
Besides Civil War this book tells us also about plenty of treachery at various levels of power, while backstabbing is close at hand when necessary, and all that for the ultimate power and glory, the Royal Crown of England.
What we will definitely also find in this fascinating and gripping book is years of bloodshed and betrayal between these factions, Lancaster and York, a bloodshed that will cost many lives on both sides, but that will finally come to it's definite conclusion at the "Battle of Bosworth Field" in AD 1485, with what will eventually become as the "Rise of the Tudors".
Very much recommended, for this book is "A Superb Conclusion"!

Awesome.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 4 February 2020

Another brilliant series from probably the best writer out there. I had very little knowledge of this period in British history. I didn't realize the scale of the civil war in Britain during this time. Conn Iggulden brings it all back to life and coincidentally, also makes me glad I didn't live in those times. Conn makes me feel i'm there, that i'm listening in secret to the plots and machinations of wealthy and powerful individuals. I'm there in the middle of terrifyingly bloody battles, expecting one outcome and being astonished when i'm wrong. Tens of thousands of men dying in horror. I could go on. However, this is a review and I recommend this series. 5 stars or 10 out of 10. As I stated earlier, Conn Iggulden is one of the best out there. Absolutely superb. Check out his series on Julius Caesar and Genghis khan and his fantasy series, Empire of salt. They're brilliant as well.

A good series, but the finale deserved better....

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 8 June 2020

Verified Purchase

This is the fourth and concluding novel in the War of the Roses series and covers the period from Warwick's invasion and deposing of Edward IV in 1470 until the Battle of Bosworth and the demise of Richard III. Therefore quite a long period with a lot of events and three major battles.
Although the whole series is worthy, I felt that this final installment was a bit rushed and lacked balance. Some of the earlier books were very detailed, but this seemed rather rushed at the ending with poor characterisation. The whole reign of Richard III last about the last 70 pages or so, and lacked depth. This is a shame because the earlier books were very good, but for me the ending of the series seemed rushed and superficial.

Faded away

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 20 March 2017

I have loved this series of books. And I loved the first part of this one.
I do not mind if novelists bend facts to make a good novel as some have suggested about this book. They are writing novels, not history books.
But for me Part Two of this book falls as a story. It is almost as if Mr Iggulden was getting a bit bored with it all and the characterisation seems to slip away. Buckingham, for example, is not developed at all. There is no examination of the causes of his rebellion against Richard so this all falls rather flat. Similarly, Richard becomes a bit of a cardboard cut out towards the end. This is made more apparent by the wonderful characterisation of Edward, Warwick and Elizabeth in Part One. When Edward dies the life seems to go out of the story. Henry Tudor, a difficult character to portray, is handled quite well but there still seems to be little depth.
A disappointing end to a fine series of novels.

Informative but unengaging

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 26 September 2017

Verified Purchase

I can't recommend Iggulden's series on Julius Caesar and Genghis Khan highly enough, but this has to be one of the most unengaging books/series I've ever laboured through. Obviously the story is based on true events and real characters, but it is hard to warm to any of the protagonists or celebrate their victories. Derry Brewer might have played a more prominent role to solve this problem, but his presence is sporadic and lacks development. The Tudors too offer an opportunity for the author to offer an agreeable conclusion, but the future king proves cold and detached, like the books. Though there is plenty of detail, I never once felt immersed in the battles, which is surprising and disappointing. If it's an era you're curious about, you will learn a lot of facts from reading these books, but you will not be warmed by the storyteller.
