Pale Rose of England Review Ì 8 Review Pale Rose of England Soon be prisoner of King Henry VII and her beloved husband would be stamped as an imposter With Richard facing execution for treason Catherine alone in the glittering but deadly Tudor Court must find the courage to spurn a cruel monarch shape her own destiny and win the admiration of a natio. Pale Rose of England by Sandra Worth3 StarsHistory holds a number of fascinating mysteries One of those deals with the fate of Edward IV s sons Were they murdered in the Tower If so by whom Their Uncle Richard The future Tudor King Henry VII Duke of Buckingham Ordid they actually survive Worth take the position that Perkin Warbeck was indeed the youngest son that young Richard survived matured and married Catherine Gordon niece to King James of Scotland Worth states in her Author s Note that she believes Perkins to truly be Ricahrd IV and she presents a persuasive case on the surface With so little information left about the central characters I can imagine developing a story like this is gratifying for an author But Worth s writing style is not for me She is melodramatic relies on grandilouent phrases to convey love rather than build emotional connection for the reader and is incredibly repitive Further I originally planned to give her credit for her Author s Note I don t take issue when an author takes artistic license as long as it is admitted Worth to her credit does that I also give her credit for giving both sides of the argument related to the authenticity of Perkins claims As I continued to read what made me uncomfortable were some obvious inaccuracies That always gives me pause regarding the veracity of the author s other claims I ended up giving it a three because I was completely unaware of how convinced so many people were of Perkins authenticity Of course there is that Plantangent eye trait that Worth will tell you about over and over but he would have to present a very convincing case to persuade so many European leaders to his his cause I don t think I would read another work from this author but I m glad I read this one

I read this novel because I wanted to find out about Catherine Gordon but was very disappointed because this book was sugary candy floss romance and it didn t even do that very well than informative historical fiction What facts were included were uestionable at best and ridiculous at worst because the authors obvious bias and Yorkist agenda were clearly visible Only read this book if you like your historical fiction pink and fluffy and you don t mind if the characters you are reading about bear little or no resemblance to the historical figures they claim to be If you like your HF novels meaty and reasonably accurate then this is not the book for youI ve now read three of Ms Worth s novels and I m afraid this will be my last She is clearly not an author for me
