Succession by Living Michael

I was very lucky to sent this lovely book from Penguin to review and I glad they did this is the first book I have read by this author and I was hooked from page one if you like the White Queen and the Game of Thrones then you love this book.
This book is based round the war of the roses and two strong female characters which make this story easy to read and fall into .
The first is Margaret of Aryou a French princess sent across the waters to marry Henry VI I really felt for this character being young and sent away stripped from family, friends and everything she has know into a world of the unknown, I felt the author had wrote this with great feeling and understanding of the time .
  The second character is Margaret Beaufort is the strongest character by the age of thirteen and before her death is married one more time !!!!! Margaret's Beaufort is the mother of Herry VII.
Through out the book both women fight for position and they sons to become king if England.

I loved this book from start to finish and is another book that has open my eyes to a different gene.
