The White Queen by Philippa Gregory
I can't say that I'm quite as intrigued by the Plantagenets as I am by the Tudors but I find that I really enjoy historical fiction novels, and this one was no different. Very good easy read, takes an interesting, alternative view regarding the two princes in the tower, one of the great unsolved mysteries of the 16th Century that I've been intrigued by ever since I visited the Tower of London many years ago. And wouldn't you know it just as I wrote that sentence the news came on talking about Prince William and Prince Harry, coincidental timing!
Anyone have any books from 15th/16th Century England to recommend?
