Rendition In Pursuance Of Books The Exiled (War of the Roses #2)

In this windswept story set in the lusty fifteenth century, the enchanting Anne faces the challenge of raising her child in exile. Always resourceful, she flourishes as a merchant and is able to support her household. But the local businessmen aren't pleased about competing with a woman and her foes are multiplying around her, desperate to put her back in what they believe is her rightful place.

Anne has a secret that her enemies could use to destroy her. Her beloved son is the product of a passionate affair with the king, Edward IV, who knows nothing of his existence. If this information were to fall into the wrong hands, it could prove lethal for Anne and her child. She struggles to find peace in a world of duplicity and suspicion, where adversaries masquerade as allies, and someone very powerful wants her dead. Yet, despite the pressure of her enemies, what pains Anne the most is that she is unsure when or if she will see her darling Edward again.

Commentary Containing Books The Exiled (War of the Roses #2)
This one was good historical fiction. I'm not at all familiar with Edward IV, so it was interesting to read about an unfamiliar era. It's the second of three novels, and I haven't read the first in the series, but I wasn't too at sea, always a plus. Minuses: No author's note: I always like to know where fact and fiction differ. Too much hocus pocus: While I generally enjoy fantasy literature, I do not like it mixed with history.

Second in the series of Anne de Bohun, who in the previous book had been exiled from Englan by her lover King Edward. In the year since, she has given birth to their son Edward, and establieshed herself under patronage of a wealthy trader in Brugges. She uses her intellegience and gossip to build a fortune, but in doing so, engenders the ire of her growing list of enemies (including that of the Queen of England). Finally things come to a head, bringing her back into the sphere of the

I didn't like this book. It had a great idea for a plot, and then it got overwhelmed in a ton of minutia and the whole story didn't really hang together for me. I gave up about halfway through and have no plans on finshing it.

This is book two in Posie Graeme-Evans' Anne de Bohun trilogy. It picks up in the city of Brugges, about a year after the Innocent leaves off were our heroine Anne is living in exile. Anne is now a mother masquereding as the aunt of her illegitimate son Edward. While in Brugges, Anne shocks medieval socety and becomes a wealthy merchant. While Anne seeks peace in Brugges she is unable to find that peace. Like the Innocent, the Exiled is a bit unrealistic and lacks plausibility for some important

The second book of the Anne de Bohun saga continues...Anne has gone to Brugge to live in exile, the secret of her birth father and her affair with England's King Edward IV putting her in danger of being used as a pawn by either Lancaster or York, whoever gets their hands on her. At loose ends with her life, she focuses her energies on partnering in trade with her guardian, merchant Mathew Cuttifer. Although her gender sets the English Merchants against her, she has an ally in the Duke of

I read The Innocent a number of years ago and I always meant to continue this trilogy before now, but I only found the time recently. The Exiled picks up in the city of Brugge, where Anne, exiled after her adventures at the court of Yorkist King Edward IV, which included an affair with the king and the birth of an illegitimate child, has settled and begun to earn a living as a merchant. She must wrestle with the prejudice and envy of her fellow merchant, who do not care to trade with a woman,

It was a fun ride, interesting look at a royal wedding (don't mind saying I want some of those presents please), the romance was a bit rushed and so was some of the adventure.
