The finale of this first novel is a blast with several surprises that leaves the Reader wanting for more. Built by Better. Buy Listen. Behind the book Released in As soon as I had completed my research on The White Queen I realised that I wanted to write a companion novel about the other side, the Tudors and Margaret Beaufort the matriarch of their house.
Book opens in Now a grown man, Henry VI has maintained his hold on the English throne, despite decades of political and military challenges by the House of York.
Anne Neville - Cecily of York - Edmund Tudor - Edward IV - Elizabeth of York - Elizabeth Woodville - Henry Tudor - Henry VI - Jacquetta of Luxembourg - Jasper Tudor - Margaret Beaufort - Margaret d'Anjou - Richard III - Publishers Weekly "Nobody does the Tudors better than Gregory, so it should come as no surprise that her latest The Sunday Times Magazine "Gregory's portrayal reveals a woman who is cunning and hard to like, but a great deal more adept and resourceful than many of the chaps in armour" Full Review.
Marie Claire "Fascinating The Times "This interweaving of the personal and the historical in a way that is fluid and entirely believable is, of course, why one reads Gregory in the first place.
Hot Stars, OK! Magazine "This dramatic book follows the life of the courageous Margaret Beaufort. Sunday Express "Philippa Gregory's books are always well-researched, informative and entertaining.
Wendy Holden, Daily Mail "Gregory brings another historical white rabbit out of a hat to deliver an absorbing drama". Princeton Book Review "Once again, Philippa Gregory brings this era to life, creates wonderful characters and immerses the reader in vivid historical detail.
Redbook "Sexy Don't fault him for it. Those "war books" and "death guides"? Of course he studies battles and tactics, you ridiculous harpy.
And when Cal is furious about not being able to fight his own battles: "I'm a soldier," Cal spits, shrugging away from his brother's touch.
I won't do it. It makes me sick. I don't speak, letting the diplomatic Maven talk for me. He always knows what to say.
Do you see why it was so easy to predict the outcome of this little shindig? Inconsistent: "He thinks speeches are a waste of time.
Cal likes action, not words. Maybe once I thought so, but not now. Not ever again. Her entire thought process there is mind-boggling. Then several pages later: And as much as I hate to admit it, I can't blame Cal for feeling caught between two worlds.

I listened to it through a library audio book loan, and made it halfway through the second one before I finally could not take anymore. I tend to be stubborn and try ro stick it out as long as it isn't costing me money, but I was so over it I kept losing my place to thoughts about work and my commute instead of listening to the book.
Sep 18, Rachel E. Now to my actual thoughts on this book. Not going to lie. Cal — Shame on you, you hot beautiful prince, you. I know you are supposed to come off as this nice guy but before Maven turned out to be evil I seriously did not like you.
That said I still loved your romance scenes and I do like you. I will admit to my sickness. Maven, Maven, Maven.
Hello Darkling meets Joffrey. Kind of like Malfoy with a heart. But strangely enough I enjoyed it. It played out to my guilty pleasure side.
I loved them both. And he's going to war. We all secretly love them. That part annoyed me to no end because while I was down with instalike I was not down with instalove and I did not interpret Cal as that much of an idiot.
Thank the gods that turned out not to be true. Instead I gained so much more for him standing up to her and turning her in. Way to go, Cal!!! The brother Shade.
That twist annoyed me. And helloooo Darkling aka Maven. His eyes are so cold. Because he is her son. Because this was her plan all along. Pierce Great review!
Oct 26, PM. That Girl OK I strongly disagree. I also don't understand why took so much time to write out a negative review.

Jul 28, Emily May rated it did not like it Shelves: fantasy , young-adult , arc , I just It was boring, light and silly, and I'm pretty sure I've already read the basic premise of this book in Pierce Brown's Red Rising.
When you're reading a book and you reach a point where you think "is it too soon to DNF this? It's so sad, though, because everything about The Red Queen wa I just It's so sad, though, because everything about The Red Queen was just screaming "love me, Emily!
It's not because of the love triangle, either. I've said before that an author can easily sell me a well-executed love triangle - so nope, it wasn't that.
Let me tell you a sad little truth about this book and I can take it straight from the blurb: Graceling meets The Selection in debut novelist Victoria Aveyard's sweeping tale That's an odd mash-up to use in your marketing anyway.
Like Gone Girl meets Twilight or something similar. Maybe it comes later There was way too much of The Selection 's mean girl antics to make this book interesting.
The part of this book I read was sooooo slooooow. Painfully slow. We're introduced to a world that had potential but remained incredibly basic, bringing nothing particularly new to the table.
There are two kinds of people in this world - Silvers and Reds. The former are the ruling class, have silver blood, and sometimes possess special abilities like mind control and elemental manipulation.
The Reds are a slave class who are ruled over by the Silvers and live in poverty. Mare is a Red who, in unexpected circumstances, discovers that she has powers of her own.
In order to keep an eye on her and learn more about the powers she possesses, she is disguised as a Silver and trained within the Silver palace. All the other women in the novel instantly hate her usually for no good reason and all the men see sunshine radiating out of the pores of her skin metaphor for "cue love triangle".
His mission is to extract enough precious elements to one day tame the surface of the planet and allow humans to live on it.
The Reds are humanity's last hope. Or so it appears, until the day Darrow discovers it's all a lie. That Mars has been habitable - and inhabited - for generations, by a class of people calling themselves the Golds.
A class of people who look down on Darrow and his fellows as slave labour , to be exploited and worked to death without a second thought.
Until the day that Darrow, with the help of a mysterious group of rebels, disguises himself as a Gold and infiltrates their command school , intent on taking down his oppressors from the inside.
Of course, there's a revolution brewing in both books too. And both main characters pretend to be members of the other class.
I mean This book was a constant showdown between the innocent MC and the bitchy mean girl and her gang of mean girls. And I'm sure Evangeline's meanness is going to be used as an excuse for Mare to run off with Cal and not lose any sleep over it.
Maybe not The main problem for me was that the revolution and the bigger war going on between the Silvers and Reds wasn't given enough attention.
I felt like the plot relied on the romantic aspect and the angst to propel it along. Neither of which I cared about. Farley scoffs.
I can't believe this. When Farley turns to him, looking for some kind of support, she finds none. Actual rating : 1. Now, as bland and hollow as they are, I still don't understand what they see exactly in Mare but who am I to judge?
Guess what? I'm not finding any redeeming quality in you either. Evangeline : "From the way her fingers tighten, I can tell she wants nothing more than to wrap her hands around my throat.
Their smiles are fake and cold, just like their eyes. For fuck sake. We will never see men doing that in books and that's what sickens and maddens me.
It spreads the message that we women are sly and hateful. Oh but wait! This is by far the most widespread stereotype about women. Women authors, I'm not thanking you.
Say the girl who didn't like Red Rising, though. Red as the dawn. Never seen this before. B-bu-but nothing happens! The Queen can read minds but OMG she can't guess anything?
That ending though. Too bad I don't care about any of the characters. Waste of my time. Oh and you people! I would so love to see that!

You know that feeling when you read a particularly bad YA and you just have to set down the book and ask, why? Why in the world did someone give the ok to publish this mess?
Why are the characters so effing dumb? Why did I even pick this book up? This happens on average once per YA book for me This book had me questioning everything WHY is everything always Mare's fault?
Her sister getting caught for stealing? Totally Mare's fault. Rebel uprising? Totally on Mare's shoulders. Causing countless deaths on account of her misguided sense of justice?
Wait, yeah, that one is actually on her There is a difference between taking responsibility for your actions and squeezing out every last ounce of sympathy for your main character.
This is a case of the latter. WHY is everything repeated three times? Is there a word count limit Aveyard was building to? Did someone regift a thesaurus to her last Christmas?
If so, why can't she find any synonyms for Red as the Dawn? That bloody crimson freaking dawn was the bane of my existence. WHY is there so much angst??
There's excusable teenage angst It's like, come on, they Mare's captors literally made Mare read one paragraph of propaganda in exchange for letting her marry the hot prince.
WHY are first fridays even mentioned at all?? It's like Aveyard was like, "Let's throw in a bit of Hunger Games" but then her editors said, "Sorry, there's a whole series about that.
WHY did I pick up this book? Don't actually have a good reason other than a friend said they thought it was terrible and wanted my opinion.
Guess we figured out that Audiobook Comments The reader really embodied Mare, which made listening to this book really terrible.
Every whine was emphasized, ever pout was pouted I ended up listening to this one on 1. Miranda Reads Diana wrote: "Agree! I DNFed the series.

I will say though that it did take a bit of time for me to really get into this book. I also felt the world is still a bit underdeveloped for my liking, but I'm hoping that I gain a better understanding for everything in the sequel.
Other than that such an exciting read, full of twists and turns that will leave you flailing all over the place!
That plot twist though That betrayal though View all 75 comments. Plus, it would be interesting to see how the author imagined her world-building, for I had trouble visualising it while reading.
Basically, the author created her own world — which is admirable — melding Dystopia and High Fantasy as genres. The result is pretty impressive, let me tell you.
It was relatively easy to immerge into the storyline. Really, I stand by my claim that this will make a successful movie. Now we just have to wait and see.
Mare — the heroine — is incontestably fearless, rather reckless, badass enough but… not a ruler born. She wants the best for her people and tries to free them with as much power as she can muster, but her taking rash important decisions draws affliction to her person and people around her.
A lot. If becoming a queen is her destiny, then she requires some character development. We could make a great team, heh, the two of us!
You know what? There is a love triangle — almost… square? It made sense and, here and there, was actually strategic. Oh, manipulation corners every chapter.
Red Queen deserves everything it acquired thus far: thousands of five-star ratings and reviews from readers of all over the world, a discernable tremendous hype that got to me with much force and… its standing as 1 New York Times Bestseller!
I'm sure it's great if you liked Red Rising. I did not like Red Rising. I hated the main character. Stupid, selfish, destructive brat intent on destroying the lives of her loved ones with all the makings of a special snowflake.
I cannot stand selfishness when it involves harming the lives of innocents. I can't tolerate this character. I can't finish this book. It's been a month since I tried to read on and it's just pointless.

It's like an X-Men dystopia stuck in a high fantasy world on crack. Look, guys, don't worry about the love triangle. Actually, calling it a love triangle is very spoilerish and I wish I could further calm your feels, but alas, you must read it for yourself.
Immensely loved this with very minor reservations and I can't wait for book 2! Full review to come! View all 33 comments.
I enjoyed reading it, but it was so similar to many other YA books that it's not memorable. That was an intense book and I really enjoyed it!
I am a sucker for superpowers and this book had such a cool variety of them! I was so into this book that I stayed up very, very late two nights in a row so I could see what happened next.
It was a little predictable at times and I can see why people say that it's really similar plot-wise to a couple of other books, but I still liked it very much!
I just want a little more world building and a little more romance I'm always going to vote for more romance, to be honest , but I'm almost positive that that will all happen in the next book!
Also, I really want a map for the world! I feel like that would be such a cool addition to the book. View all 21 comments.

Red Queen? I wish I kept putting this book off until I eventually died someday. I would have been saved from the incredible fucking boredom and dumb ass characters.
Actual footage of me crying because I wasted three days on this book when I could have been reading good quality smut: Okay, but why was this book so long???
I feel like it could have been cut down by pages instead of fucking dragging to a disappointing and predictable ending.
Guys, the Red Queen? Guys, the writing it's so tedious, slow, dull, monotonous and slow and uneventful and tbh at this point I'd rather sit down and sing the Barney theme song which is fucKing lit by the way over and over again till someone finds me dead in my room.
Here's a concept: everyone dies in this book and Barney rules the kingdom because he will be everyone's friend!!!!
How am I supposed to take her seriously when I always think of a horse whenever someone says her name. And she's just so dumb?? And annoying?? Cal is also dumb and annoying and has no personality whatsoever.
His death would also be appreciated. And Maven??? I hope he finds Mare and Cal and then kills them and then rules ruthlessly, have a good day.
I want to feed them to sharks. BR with this smexy beast. Like literally everyone has read this except me??? Sana tf you doing???
Ok but this series is finally ending so i can start it soon!! And the covers of every single book is gorgeous, i can't even,,, Mar 07, myra rated it did not like it Shelves: did-not-like.

I just felt so much disappointment after turning the last page, since I was expecting a fresh new story out of this one. A very common dystopian trope.
Yes, Mare can be considered badass with her unique ability and sassy attitude, but she felt like your typical Mary Sue for me.
And when her two love interests come along, she thinks of them both constantly and rather obsessively. Exhibit C: Yes, the customary love triangle square is present.
Mare is drawn to two brothers should I mention that they're princes? I like the other brother's character, but there's definitely zero chemistry between him and Mare.
There's also your resident Queen Bee, Evangeline, who seems to hate Mare the moment they lock eyes. Another iffy thing about the book was the lack of a backstory.
Sure, I enjoyed all the Red vs. Silver propaganda, but I would've liked to find out how everything became the way they are now. Maybe the next books will give me that.
Overall, if you're one of those people who reads and loves all those popular young adult books out in the market today as well as The Selection -esque type books, I really believe that Red Queen will be a good fit for you.

In the entire book I was like: hmmm team Cal. Team Maven.. Hmm Team Cal.. Julian was so right!!! Why did he do that to us?? I loved him.. You should have listened.
And you betrayed us both, in a thousand different ways. I choose no one. I see Mare's betrayal and Maven's obviously But I don't see Cal's betrayal.

No, okay, listen. Let me explain why this book was a no-no for me. We could say most of my problems with this book are to blame on wrong timing.
I'm firmly convinced that if I read it something like six years ago, I probably would have liked it. Not loved it, but it would have definitely gained a couple more stars and a bit more attention from my part.
Unfortunately, I picked it up too late, once I've eventually had my chance to read around and already managed to juggle my way out of the various The Hunger Games , The Selection , Divergent , Red Rising and the rest of the merry dystopian brigade.
So it left nothing to discover and this book didn't bring anything new to my reading experience.
It's not even about it being similar to other books, I promise. I mean, I don't mind parallels, but we're talking copy-pasting of plots, here.
To me, Red Queen felt like large bowl of minestrone made from scraps of those novels above, with only the tiniest and faintest bit of originality that were still too weak to get me hooked.
Maybe if it wasn't for all this, I would have found it entertaining and thrilling, instead of boring and dull, but being completely honest, if it wasn't for this, we would also be talking about a different book.
Different being the word. You can change the factors only a determined number of times, but in the end, the final product stays the same.
Want an example? I have tons. We have, in fact, the One not-like-other-girls girl who's going to save the day because who else could?
Now put all this together and you could really be talking about any or every one of those books. You name it, Red Queen has it.
To be honest, I'm not even sure the concept behind this book is that bad, after all, it just was deadly trite, and it definitely wasn't for me.
Add to this that I didn't particularly like any of the characters truth be told, I sort of don't dislike Maven, but only a little enough to be interested in their lives, personal issues and developments, and you'll have an idea of what's keeping me, from this moment on, at least twenty feet away from this series.
I liked the writing, though, reason for which I decided to give the author another chance. That is, as long as it doesn't involve dystopian worlds, cheesy romance and The Bachelor-like subplots.
Am I going to need therapy after this book? Does the premise of a love triangle square? Is this book going to make me want to flip tables? Am I going to regret reading this book?
Am I really sure I should read it? AT ALL. Let's do this! View all 95 comments. This review might be mildly spoilerish. I'm sort of sorry because I know if I read this book 5 or 6 years ago I would have loved it.
I really wish this was published earlier and I also had time to read it right after it was published. I'm mostly annoyed by it.
Maybe because I wish I was stuck in time so I could still enjoy these? But I'm also a bit proud that I finally finished this one.
Also, this book just reminds me of too many other books. Selection the marry the prince part , Divergent This review might be mildly spoilerish.
Selection the marry the prince part , Divergent the having oh-so-secret and so-dangerous powers that will help to tear the system down and also will be the same, I am the only one with these powers, and then you have this power, you have this power, and maybe everyone will have this power.
What is this? Also Kilorn really reminds me of Hurricane. And probably more but I think this list is enough to make the image. Makes no sense and it's annoying, honestly.
I started it in August ! Main problem? I don't like Mare, at all. I could not get to like her. She just does not have any main character spark for me.
And I am really sorry to say this, but pretty often she even came off as absolutely clueless or even dumb. From the start, she hates Silvers because they are just monsters, mean etc.
But then she meets Cal, knows nothing about him but tells him everything! She trusts him for no real reason. And she was warned several times that anyone could betray anyone.
Then she got into the whole mess. She hates the Silvers who are so mean. But suddenly she likes Maven. She trusts him.
Like, why? She knows him and Cal for that matter for a couple of days. After a lifetime of hating Silvers or even being afraid of them, she just trusts them.
Because she is a brand new, technically powerful player in the arena and of course everyone would love to have on their side. Then she thinks she could just sneak around, using her powers and no one would ever think about it.
Like: "You know, all these cameras suddenly turning off, do you maybe think that it could be that girl that can control electricity? Just maybe?
Then, I don't like Cal. Because he is just a little mister perfect. There is nothing about him. How did it happen?
There was nothing. No reason for those two to have feelings for each other. There was almost no interaction between them except for small episodes.
There must be another way. Same with taunting view spoiler [Maven hide spoiler ] making it like he is weak to refuse to battle with him.
There is no weakness in knowing you are weaker and not able to win against someone in fair battle or on their terms.
That would not be brave that would be stupid! You fight to win, not to present the best battle possible and let the best fighter win. I was not sure about Maven.
Cause he seemed, boring? And suspicious. However, I wonder. Mare said that he instantly changed, his behaviour, the way he speaks etc.
So the question is, did he pretend to be a good guy just for Mare or long before her? Because if A, then his sudden change would have been suspicious to everyone else around.
Including Cal. If B then why? That makes no sense! If you're there to guard someone you just don't forget about it cause it's new to you.
It looks like I even have problems writing this review. I have so much to say that I keep forgetting.
Also, it seems to have every trope imaginable. Cause a villain cannot be brave! So, what I liked? I liked Evangeline and Ptolemus.
So, I am not sure if I will read it. View all 44 comments. Good lord in heaven! This book should carry one of those labels. It's not that it's bad.
Look, I'm trying to be diplomatic. This book was bad, but it's not the sort of thing that, if you're interested, you shouldn't read.
There were some pretty co Good lord in heaven! There were some pretty cool scenes One cool scene. It was daringly gory and very deftly written. Oftentimes I find that fight scenes are written in such a way that the author knows what's going on, but nobody else does.
Here, everything is pretty easy to visualize. But the problem is that this book is just a great big patchwork of a thousand other YA sci-fi dystopia melodramas that I really couldn't care less about.
It's nothing special, the characters are nothing special, the plot is laughably simplistic. Even the twist was visible from a mile off, because of course that character that everyone has been side-eyeing for the last three hundred pages is evil.
Of course the character that the heroine tries the hardest to convince herself is good people is bad people. But it's so cringey, like making small talk with the hairdresser.
Here's this incredibly boring girl, Alina Starkov, who gets taken to the Capitol when her Grisha powers emerge in dire straits! Cersei Lannister engages Alina in a battle of wills view spoiler [and shit hits the fan when she orchestrates the killing of Robert Baratheon so Joffrey can take the throne even though it rightfully belongs to Mal.
I'm not entirely sure if Cal is Mal well, they got the names right but he's that sort of jerk that you can tell the author likes but who left me colder than a chest freezer.
He could have been spaghettified by a stellar black hole and crushed into unobservable matter in the singularity and I wouldn't have given a rat's ass either way.
Water is a conductor, and if Evangeline is hurling metal at Mare's head, a wall of electricity isn't going to stop it. I guess you could say that if Evangeline's power is to create magnetic fields, then Mare's lightning interfered with that, but that's really clutching at straws and there's no evidence that simply applying a shock of current to a magnetic field will block it.
In fact, hardly anything can block a magnetic field; it's a powerful force. Can Mare create forcefields? That's never really solidified. Even the Rise, red as the dawn thing that was clearly a marketing tool falls flat.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: you can develop your protagonist until you're blue in the face, but a story is nothing without a supporting cast.
World building is nothing without decent supporting characters. I knew this book and I would have a hard time getting along when I realized it was written in exhausting, unfunny "snarky" first person, but look at the world Suzanne Collins managed to built through the eyes of one character.
In terms of the world building, there is none. If world building were food, this book would be starving. There's this glassy castle and a smoky district and then the nasty Stilts, but it's so skimpy, guys.
There's no depth to it at all. And this book tries to do the biopunk thing with the silver blood and the inherited powers but it's all just drugs and magnets, isn't it?
The fact that anybody believes the ruse around Mare is proof that these people might be powerful, but there's nothing but cobwebs between their ears.
Red Queen was not a letdown for me, though. I didn't have high hopes to begin with, so I wasn't disappointed in the slightest. I suppose that's the best outcome from all of this: I gained and lost nothing.
