This was a great historical account. This is what I wrote to the author:
I just finished your fascinating and insightful book, The Dark Queens. I was gobsmacked by all that I learned, and all I saw through your writing. You really have a gift with making the truth (as much as we know it) come to life!
I am still reeling from having read this book. Thank you so much for all of your hard work, because it shows! You did your research and you wrote about it in such a great way that non-scholars can appreciate it so well. I really feel like I know these women now, and my life is the richer for it.
