Rezensionen
Praise for Philppa Gregory:

'Subtle and exciting.' Daily Express

'Written from instinct, not out of calculation, and it shows.'
Peter Ackroyd, The Times

'For sheer pace and percussive drama it will take a lot of beating.' Sunday Times

'One of Gregory's great strengths as a novelist is her ability to take familiar historical figures and flesh them into living breathing human beings. The Constant Princess is a worthy successor to her previous novels about the Tudors.' Daily Express
