I'm really looking forward to it. I love discovering new under-publicized historical figures and I've read so many hist-fic books about Katherine of Aragon with Juana as a side character, but never a book focusing on her specifically. I hear C.W. Gortner's next book is about Catherine de Medici, who has rapidly become a very popular character for historical novels as of late. I think it says a lot about the author as a writer to be able to write so beautifully (so I hear) from a female POV, despite his being a man. I look forward to reading it for myself! :)Allie ~ Hist-Fic Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146943476204000055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5944570901299649958.post-86360368910197301822009-08-22T01:43:19.580+01:002009-08-22T01:43:19.580+01:00I really liked this one, too!
