Praise for this book

"Katherine was recently featured as one of the top 100 novels in the BBC's Big Read competition. Set in the 14th century and covering a little known period of English history, it's the story of Katherine Roet, royal mistress and ancestress of kings. Anya Seton has a way of bringing the past so vividly to life that the characters walk off her pages and joined the reader in the room." - Elizabeth Chadwick
