Henry VIII: The Heart and the Crown Reviews

Alison Weir makes Henry VIII's story feel like it has never been told before . . . she gets under the skin of the man who is so often dismissed as a much-married monster and gives us an altogether more nuanced, compelling and human portrayal -- Tracy Borman
As always, Alison Weir is ahead of the curve - and at the top of her game. Her wide knowledge and unparalleled understanding of the Tudor era fuels a sympathetic, but never sycophantic, portrait of England's most compelling king -- Sarah Gristwood
This is royal Tudor life both in broad scope and intimate detail and readers are in for a sumptuous journey -- Elizabeth Chadwick
What a book! Alison has done a fantastic and impressive job of bringing to life such a notorious historical figure as a multi-faceted, imperfect yet likeable and even, at times, pitiable character . . . Complex, captivating and memorable -- Tracy Rees
