Tallis brings this tragic teen to vivid life in her perceptive and thoughtful new book. -- Christian Science Monitor Tallis' clear writing and well-paced narrative heighten the story's climactic and tragic ending. -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) A stunning debut from a young historian who deserves to be recognized as a major talent in her field. -- Alison Weir, #1 New York Times bestselling author Tallis takes this thin slice of fact and serves it up as a full banquet, filling in history's faint outline. The telling is by necessity speculative, since so little primary source material exists. Nevertheless, Tallis perseveres, presenting Jane as 'a spirited girl who demonstrated character, passion, talent, and strength, ' a serious bookworm who grew up in a household where new ideas flourished. -- New York Times Book Review Tallis combines Jane's virtues as a scrupulous scholar herself with a colorful background of how Tudor England looked, sounded, and smelled. She has succeeded in drawing Jane out of the shadows. -- Spectator (London) Highly recommended for readers interested in British history or the Tudor era. -- Library Journal
