The Virgin Daughter A Tudor Legacy Novel Laura Andersen Books Reviews

Fascinating history I enjoy wrapped some very complex charcters. This was well done! I look forward to more of her work.
I love Laura Andersen's books simply because she takes historical fiction to a whole new level by creating the "what-if" story. What if Anne Boleyn had borne a son? What if Queen Elizabeth had married? I love it!
Laura draws us in to the world that might have been and its full of intrigue and drama! I loved the first part of the Tudor legacy novels and this book was great! Can't wait for the next one!
Confusing,at timed, the plot ends with another brewing. In actuality, the title is a bit misleading. Most of the tale revolves around Lucette. Lucette is not the Queens fictitious daughter. The daughter has only a minor role. At times the long sentences use phrases that confuse on first reading. The intrigues are fairly good.
I have always been a lover of historic fiction and this great series is one of the best that I have found, this alternative story of the Tudor's history is very believeable and I cant wait for the next book to come out.
This trilogy is a follow-up of another trilogy by this author ("The Boleyn Trilogy"), which I definitely recommend reading first. This series projects what could have happened if Queen Elizabeth I had married Philip of Spain and had a daughter. Characters from the first trilogy are adults now themselves with children who propel the plot. This trilogy is not quite as good as the Boleyn one because the fun of the first series is that the author's use of true history is so artfully and creatively woven into a whole new parallel plain of possibility. While this series does rely on that strategy, it's all too easy to confuse Elizabeth's fake daughter with the real Elizabeth as a youth. Since there is so much fiction utilizing this fascinating historical figure, there isn't much left to create that's original (unlike the first series which is very much original). That being said, this isn't just another Elizabeth novel... but only if you start with the other series so the fictional characters and hypothetical plot line can blend with the real facts of the period.
Excellent alternate-history novel. In this history re-imagined, Princess Elizabeth had gotten married to the King of Spain and had a daughter before she became Queen (a half-brother and a half-sister had become Regent before her.) Elizabeth is now Queen and her daughter is a young lady. The war between Catholics and Protestants is active in Britain and the rest of Europe, and a young lady close to Elizabeth is recruited as a spy to get to the bottom of a plot against the royal family relating to freeing Mary, Queen of Scots.

It is an exciting drama with lots of period-correct historical details.

We do not experience it live, but only relived, but there is some brutal soda-masochism in the religious battles. So, I would rate it PG.
