Insights from The Kingmaker's Daughter (The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels, #4; Cousins War, #4)
“I am the Kingmaker’s daughter and I am to be used for the making of kings.”
Anne Neville spends her whole childhood as a pawn for her father. Seeing her realize she is just a piece on his chessboard is heartbreaking.
The rivalry between Anne and Isabel feels so modern. They love each other but their husbands make them enemies for the sake of a crown.
“She is a witch, we all know it.”
Elizabeth Woodville is terrifying in this story. Seeing her through Anne's eyes makes her magic and beauty feel like a constant threat.
Richard of Gloucester starts out so differently than the villain we usually see. He is just a quiet boy trying to survive his brothers.
