Resumen del Editor
A story of adventure, power, and influence at the heart of one of the most dangerous times in the history of England.
Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, the "Kingmaker", is the wealthiest noble in England. He becomes a warrior knight, bravely protecting the North against invasion by the Scots. A key figure in what have become known as he Wars of the Roses, he fought in most of the important battles.
As captain of Calais, he turns privateer, daring to take on the might of the Spanish fleet and becoming Admiral of England. The friend of kings, he is the sworn enemy of Queen Margaret of Anjou. Then, in an amazing change of heart, why does he risk everything to fight for her cause?
Writers from William Shakespeare to best-selling modern authors have tried to show what sort of man Richard Neville must have been, with quite different results. Sometimes Warwick is portrayed as the skilled political manipulator behind the throne, shaping events for his own advantage. Others describe him as the last of the barons, ruling his fiefdom like an uncrowned king. Whatever the truth, his story is one of adventure, power, and influence at the heart of one of the most dangerous times in the history of England.

When Edward of York takes back the English crown, the Wars of the Roses scatter the Lancastrian nobility, and young Henry Tudor, with a strong claim to the throne, is forced into exile. Recently widowed and vulnerable, his mother, Lady Margaret Beaufort, forges an uncomfortable alliance with Edward’s Queen, Elizabeth Woodville. Swearing an oath of allegiance to York, Margaret agrees to marry the King’s shrewdest courtier, Lord Stanley. But can she tread the precarious line between duty to her husband, loyalty to her son, and her obligation to God and the King?

Historia
In the chaos of 14th-century England and France, wine is the nectar of angels - a valuable commodity buttressing kingdoms and vaulting vast fortunes. A mysterious old archer named David Arrowsmith recounts his tale to an eager French chronicler, Jean Créton, when the latter learns that his mission to Scotland seems a failure. The burden of Arrowsmith's story rests with Créton, who suddenly finds himself writing about a seemingly cursed infant that barely escapes the grip of the Black Death in rural Wales when his family dies.

In 1437, the Lancaster king Henry VI ascends the throne of England after years of semi-peaceful regency. Named "The Lamb," Henry is famed more for his gentle and pious nature than his father's famous battlefield exploits; already, his dependence on his closest men has stirred whispers of weakness at court. A secret truce negotiated with France to trade British territories for a royal bride - Margaret of Anjou - sparks revolts across English territory.

I wanted more
Tony Riches writes an excellent story and is one of my favorite authors, although he doesn’t get the recognition he deserves. This book left me wanting more. I wanted more details and more of Warwick’s story.
The narration left something to be desired. Mr. Blaxland has a very pleasing voice, but he puts no emotion in the story. It’s a monotone reading, and that was disappointing.
I still believe it’s worth a read. There’s not much out there about the Kingmaker; he’s usually a bit player in books about the Wars of the Roses, but as the wealthiest man in England, he’s much more than a bit player.

Dull!
One of my favourite subjects which normally keeps me enthralled. Sadly, I found the story too disjointed and the narration extremely monotonous. The narrator needs to do his homework on pronunciation of place names in the North and perhaps animate his voice more. I found myself nodding off several times and was never quite sure where we were up to as I often tuned out of the monotony.
Disappointing use of a credit and will be returning.
