Feel Catherine Howard's terror as old lovers resurface and whisper vicious rumors to Henry's influential advisors. Experience the heartache of mothers as they lose son after son, heir after heir.
Told in stirring first-person accounts, Fatal Throne is at once provocative and heartbreaking, an epic tale that is also an intimate look at the royalty of the most perilous times in English history.

A fascinating collection of stories written by some of the best writers we have in YA today as they tell the tales of King Henry VIII’s six wives. Each queen is compelling and her story is told in a unique and captivating voice, with a rebuttal from King Henry written by National Book Award Winner M.T. Anderson. Well researched and incredibly executed, this narrative holds your attention from the beginning to the end.
It was very easy to become absorbed in the lives of these poor women and the fate we all know would befall them.
I have always been a fan of The House of Tudor, and King Henry VIII, although a jerk, has always been a fascinating historical figure to me. “Fatal Throne” delivers a historical fiction that both a beginner and an expert on The Tudors will enjoy.
