I really liked this, I will look for more by C. W. Gortner. At first I was unsure how I would like a Tudor book written with a male main character. I though I would miss the romantic angle, the feminine insight as it were. While there isn't much insight from the female mind, no attention to the fripperies of dress for example, it was a refreshing angle to view the historical (and the invented) events from. And there is some romance for my sappy girly heart, kind of given short shrift, but enough to satisfy that requirement of mine and entice me to look forward to the next installment of what I believe to be a trilogy.
