Resumen del Editor

A novel filled with fresh insights into the story of Henry VIII's second - and most infamous - wife, Anne Boleyn. The new book in the epic Six Tudor Queens series, from the acclaimed historian and best-selling author of Katherine of Aragon.

It is the spring of 1527. Henry VIII has come to Hever Castle in Kent to pay court to Anne Boleyn. He is desperate to have her. For this mirror of female perfection he will set aside his queen and all Cardinal Wolsey's plans for a dynastic French marriage.

Anne Boleyn is not so sure. She loathes Wolsey for breaking her betrothal to the Earl of Northumberland's son, Harry Percy, whom she had loved. She does not welcome the king's advances; she knows that she can never give him her heart. But hers is an opportunist family. And whether Anne is willing or not, they will risk it all to see their daughter on the throne.

Featured Article: The top 100 series of all time


The feeling of discovering that your favorite new listen is actually the start of a series is euphoric. That you can immediately hit play and re-enter a beloved new world, or love story, or era from history is a gift to the devoted listener. But how to pick just 100 of these unique and immersive listening journeys? We defined a series as having a minimum of three books, and—after some debate—we decided the titles had to be anchored in fiction. From YA to horror to historical fiction, from fresh voices to seminal tales, hours of discovery await.

My favorite queen

Well done. This book focuses not only on Anne's flaws as a human, but on her desire to survive. She had to be cunning and intelligent and outmanuveur people. It wasn't ONLY sleeping with the king. Can you imagine walking in on YOUR husband with someone? It must have been hard on her.

This book is a great representation of what she could have been like, based on record and letters recovered. Another wonderful Weir book.

Completely Transformed My Opinion

I had always had a dim view of Ann Boleyn, believing the tales about her being some kind of witch or of not a woman who was ruthlessly ambitious and uncaring of others. I thought she had instigated the divorce from Queen Katherine with her wiles. But having listened first to the author’s book on Queen Katherine I realized that King Henry for all his many faults was truly convinced that he didn’t have a son and heir because of God’s displeasure over his marriage to his brother’s wife.

Ann’s story demonstrated how little control women had over their lives whether married to a king or not. Clearly King Henry pursued her for years and her refusal of his advances until marriage resulted in her being named Queen. She was not without ambition and was certainly aggressive in her desire to see her rivals Princess Mary and Queen Katherine dispatched. But she was not a conniving “witch” and her desire to reform the Church sincere.

I finished the book thinking better of Ann Boleyn and less of Henry Vlll. I plan to read/listen to the other books in this series.

The best book in Weir’s Six Wives Series

This was excellent - both the book and the narrator. Weir is an historian and brings the Tudor period to life with her portrait of a complicated woman caught in a web sometimes of her own making and sometimes not. Anne’s motivations are not entirely clear and of course she has to negotiate a world ruled by men

Conflicted Emotions

The best so far in the series on the wives of King Henry VIII. I only knew that Anne Boleyn was the reason that England split from Rome and was the mother of Elizabeth I. As I listened to the story, I hated Anne at first but as her story grew to a close I hated Henry more. The final chapter was truly horrific and barbaric and no one deserves that. I have a better understanding and am starting the Jane Seymour book today after I get through my turmoil of emotions that resulted from the ending of Anne Boleyn.

Worth 10 stars

This is my third listening of Weir’s book. She and the narrator are simply tops.
