De como un rey perdió Francia (Les Rois maudits #7)
This final volume of the saga of the accursed kings brings the reign of John II to life. Though history remembers him fondly, during John II's reign in the 14th century, France found itself facing a series of threatening problems: struggles between clans, England's intention to take over French territories, soaring inflation, crushing taxes, a crisis in the Church, the...more

Indignante. Maurice Druon trata de reexplotar el filón de la serie de los Reyes Malditos cuando salta a la vista que ya la había terminado en el anterior libro. Cambia la manera de enfocar la narración, cambia la voz, cambia el estilo y no queda un solo personaje de los que aparecieron en los tomos anteriores. Una estafa.
la verdad, no me gusto para nada este ultimo libro. Me encantaron los primeros seis, que salen siempre los mismos personajes, se les da seguimiento, pero en esta última entrega me quede decepcionada. Cambia el modo de narración, los personajes, y la verdad no esta tan interesante como los primeros libros. Lo leí porque tenía que saber en que termina todo, pero a fin de cuentas, dio un mal giro al final.
Druon trata com mordacidade o reinado do vaidoso e irrefletido Jean II, o Bom. A batalha de Crécy é impressionante. Mesmo quando Jean II age acertadamente, o autor nota que nem mesmo o maior dos ineptos pode ser desastroso ininterruptamente.
Os personagens que mais me interessaram foram o Delfim, o Cardeal de Périgord, o jovem Philippe da Borgonha, o Príncipe Negro e Johann de Hainaut. Alguns não somente por esse livro ou por essa série.

Cuando consiga el tomo I en version tapa dura los leere.
Buen libro pero aunque sigue la secuencia histórica de los hechos, de alguna forma se siente desconectado del resto de la serie. Sin embargo, muy interesante.
Excellente fin pour une saga palpitante!
Decepcionante! Este libro no se parece nada al resto de la serie! Aunque interesante, es un monologo monotono y nada comprometodor. No hay nada peor que un libro que no te invita a seguir leyendolo.

This is the seventh of 7 books.
They are well written and the author has done a very good job at digging the French history (1200-1400)

Weakest one of the series. Written as a monologue, dry and difficult to read.
Une fin qui s'essouffle.
