ePUB Sharon Kay Penman ↠ ePUB Lionheart PDF/EPUB Ë ↠ rildem.co lionheart kindle, Lionheart EpubOver the years I have tried several different novels that focused on the Lionheart whilst he was on crusade yet none of them really managed to engage me although they did make for good sleeping pills I’d about given up hope on ever finding one that would hold my interest until word came that Sharon Kay Penman was planning to continue her Angevin series with a book on Richard and I was dancing with joy – if anyone could do it the fabulous Sharon Penman could Was I bored?No I was notI think everyone knows the bare bones of this story as well as all the myths and legends that have sprung up around it so I’ll pass on trying to recap it and just share my thoughts on the reading experience I absolutely loved how the author portrayed Richard He is very much a man of his times a king and a warrior who did what was necessary to get the job done and keep his men and women safe I loved his sardonic wit and had many laugh out

ePUB Sharon Kay Penman ↠ ePUB Lionheart PDF/EPUB Ë ↠ rildem.co lionheart kindle, Lionheart EpubHere's the problem with historical fiction the fiction part has to ring true and be as interesting as the historical part It doesn't with this book I know it got great reviews and I really wanted to like it but I just lost interest Partly it was because of some of the inane conversations that the author made up between characters the fiction part of the story for example the author could have Richard and Berengaria discuss anything from fabric swatches for one of his many palaces to papal politics but instead the author creates a conversation where Berengaria is worried because Richard's 'member' is so big and so suggests to him that maybe they can use scented oil so sex might be pleasurablereallythat's what the author wants us to go with?The ot
