Amazon.com reviews:
"FIVE STARS!! THE LADY OF THE RIVERS is one of my favourite books by Philippa Gregory. Such an intensely romantic story between Jacquetta and Richard, as well as all the drama with Margaret of Anjou! A must read for sure."
"FIVE STARS! THE LADY OF THE RIVERS is set in France and England during the reign of King Henry VI. It follows the life of Jacquetta of Luxembourg, a descendant of the river goddess, Melusina, born with the ability to see into the future. As with The Red Queen, THE LADY OF THE RIVERS is set during the War of the Roses, but is told from the perspective of Jacquetta who, at the age of 17, is married off to the Duke of Bedford, a man twice her age. With a mixture of historical facts and fiction, Phillipa Gregory has woven a fascinating tale using both real and imaginary characters, providing a window in to their lives at a time of treachery, betrayal and war."
"FIVE STARS!! I did not want THE LADY OF THE RIVERS to end and so glad that I still have three other Philippa Gregory books to look forward to!"
