I have been an avid reader of this lady's writings for years, and I've yet to be even slightly disappointed by any of her works. She has an amazing ability to bring her readers directly into the Times, the People we have heard of and may think we know a bit about these fascinating individuals now cast in folklore and make us realize that they were indeed quite human - with genuine emotions and needs, and aids the Reader to be "of that moment" and in this book, casts a very intriguing light onto King Richard III & Queen Anne that supersedes that which many in present day even still revile and demonize. Especially King Richard III has been despised, ridiculed, and perceived as one of the most heinous, vile, and hated monarchs in the history of British monarchy. He has rarely been cast in a good light, despite the fact that he was a beloved brother and loyal to his brother King Edward and his brother George. To be quite honest, I'd never even heard any detail of his marriage to Anne aside from the fact she was indeed Warwick The Kingmaker's second daughter, and until this book I'd known nothing of her brief 1st marriage. As most write it, Richard was forced to marry the Warwick "spare" to "keep up appearances" & of course, a politic and political duty! I'm thankful Philippa Gregory does offer historic relevance to the unsung, and typically altogether ignored women of this time! These women were not deaf mutes who flitted here and yon doing needlework 24/7 while lying in bed scared stiff & nothing more than, forgive my crudeness,"sperm receptacles" &/or if much more than AKC registered "pedigreed bitch for breeding". Perhaps they were thought of that way, but I don't believe this was the case for the majority. I certainly believe, given the lack of the papal dispensation and the law regarding Anne's inheritance that IF Richard had not truly loved and respected Anne and the sanctity of marriage, . He could have and would have been rid of her easily and quickly if he didn't genuinely love and care for her. He never failed her in that respect. Review: I have enjoyed all of this series so far. - “We hold each other as we did when we were little more than children and had run away together to be married. Once again I remember him as the only man who could keep me safe, as he holds me as if I am the only woman he has ever wanted.” The Kingmaker’s Daughter by Philippa Gregory tells the story of Anne Neville, who is the youngest daughter of Richard Neville, who is known as England’s Kingmaker. As her father changes his support from one potential king to another, his family is constantly on a ride with him of being uplifted by royalty or considered as traitors. Anne finds herself in many scary scenarios as she grows up and tries to make it in the world her father has made for her. “Now I see that everyman is a Kingmaker. A throne is not empty for a moment before someone is being measured for the crown. And fresh princes spring up like weeds in a crop as soon as the rumor goes out that those who wear the crown are dead.” I really enjoy all of these books by Philippa Gregory. I love how she spins history into such an interesting and fantastical story, that shows how horribly women were treated in the past and also represents their intelligence and resiliency. I especially liked the romance in this book between Anne and Richard. I highly recommend these to anyone who find the topic interesting and I give this one 4 stars. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #140,942 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #20 in Renaissance Historical Fiction (Books) #1,054 in Historical British & Irish Literature #3,498 in Women's Domestic Life Fiction | | Book 4 of 15 | The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (7,842) | | Dimensions | 5.25 x 1 x 8 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 1451626088 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1451626087 | | Item Weight | 12.8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 464 pages | | Publication date | April 9, 2013 | | Publisher | Atria Books | ## Images ![The Kingmaker's Daughter (The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71RzUnmR4yL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Brilliant... *by H***D on July 3, 2013* After all, this is yet another wonderfully insightful historic novel authored by the incomparable Philippa Gregory!

You will learn much of the key turn of events in the War of the Roses, and the tragic figure of Anne, used as a chess piece of power. This author is best at making you feel you are there in the 15th c. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Kingmaker's Daughter (The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels) - The Red Queen (Cousins' War) - The Lady of the Rivers: A Novel (The Plantagenet and Tudor Novels) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/990880-the-kingmakers-daughter-the-plantagenet-and-tudor-novels](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/990880-the-kingmakers-daughter-the-plantagenet-and-tudor-novels) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
