Whitehall - Episode 1: "Embarkations" (Whitehall Season 1 #1) by Liz Duffy Adams

Review:

Whitehall - Episode 1: "Embarkations" - Liz Duffy Adams, Delia Sherman, Barbara Samuel, Mary Robinette Kowal, Sarah Smith, Madeleine Robins

England gets a new queen in the first episode of Whitehall, an episodic royal tale full of true history and sensual intrigue, new from Serial Box Publishing.

Winds of change carry a young Portuguese princess towards her destiny as the sun rises on Whitehall. Sheltered but curious, Catherine of Braganza arrives in her new English home full of eager excitement, but what this pious foreigner’s arrival will mean for the Merry Monarch she is to wed – and the mistress who holds his heart – is what everyone is talking about.

This episode is brought to you by Liz Duffy Adams and Delia Sherman, who know every embarkation is an adventure about to happen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My Review:

What a fascinating first installment to a serial.

I'm not typically won over by historicals because I tend to feel like the author puts too much of themselves into the history than actual history but I wasn't overly concerned by this issue this time around. I simply held it as fictional and allowed myself to let go long enough to take in the world and the characters and the plot which were so vivid and full of life that I really truly enjoyed it.

In the end it was way too short for my liking but, you know, serial... so keep that in mind.
