England, 1470. A kingdom divided against itself cannot stand. The
Yorkist king Edward IV is driven out of England, his wife and
children forced to seek sanctuary from the House of Lancaster. Yet
rage and humiliation prick Edward back to greatness. He lands at
Ravenspur, with a half-drowned army and his brother Richard at his
side. Though every hand is against them, though every city gate is
shut, they have come home. The brothers York will not go quietly
into banishment. Instead, they choose to attack. Yet neither Edward
nor Richard realize that the true enemy of York has yet to reveal
himself. Far away, Henry Tudor has become a man. He is the Red
Dragon - 'the man of destiny' who seeks to end the Wars of the
Roses. His claim will carry him to Bosworth Field. There will be
silence and the mourning of queens. There will be self-sacrifice
and terrible betrayals. Two royal princes will be put to death.
There will be an ending -- and a new royal house will stand over
them all. Praise for Conn Iggulden's Wars of the Roses series: 'A
tough, pacy chronicle of bloody encounters, betrayals and
cruelties. Superb' Daily Mail 'Iggulden is a master storyteller and
makes our blood flow faster' Sunday Express 'Iggulden breathes new
life into the darkest and most dramatic of times, with a flair for
both the huge scale and human interest of it all' Star 'Pacey and
juicy, and packed with action' Sunday Times 'Iggulden is in a class
of his own when it comes to epic, historical fiction' Daily Mirror
'Absorbing and bloody' The Times 'One of our finest historical
novelists' Daily Express
