Christine Cazeneuve's Reviews > The Pretender

So for any Tudor fans we know that little to nothing is known about Lambert Simnel after his infamous stint as pretender to the throne as the Earl of Warwick. However, this book attempts to write a story of his life (including his time as the pretender) and well past that as a historical fiction novel. I believe the author has done a plausible job in doing so. Rich in history, humor, colorful language and, perhaps, a bit much bawdiness - this is an enjoyable what could it have been like for this young man to experience story. Perhaps a little bit long at 396 pages it was still a relatively quick read. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an advanced copy in exchange for my honest opinion.
