Caroline's Reviews > Crown of Blood: The Deadly Inheritance of Lady Jane Grey

Meh. If you love the Tudors and don't know anything about Jane Grey, this might be for you. Or if you are someone who doesn't mind the "nobody expected the Spanish Inquisition" style of writing. At the end of every chapter and sometimes several times in between, we are told that someone couldn't have imagined what was going to happen or what had just happened and I got sick of it. Otherwise, not badly written. But if this is a subject you already know a little about, and you don't need your history premasticated and delivered like a novel, read Eric Ives' book instead. Abandoning it to read something with more heft.
