    <body><![CDATA[Wow, she had me completely until....she just stopped writing.  I was totally game to believe that version of the &quot;Princes in the Tower&quot;.  That the Tudors had them killed to make Richard III look bad.  I was totally game to believe that one of the boys may have survived.  And the &quot;curse&quot; on Henry VII and his sons was even a nice little wink to those of us who know our Tudor history.  But to have one of the Princes survive and then just not say what happened to him...WTF?!??<br/><br/>Later...<br/><br/>Oh, now I see where she was going....Perkin Warbeck, the later pretender who got backing from Edward IV sister and others, was really Richard.  I see.  I wonder if she is going to develop this further in later books.  I would like to see, for example, Elizabeth of York's struggle between acknowledging that &quot;Perkin&quot; is really Richard (and making him the rightful king) and protecting her own children and their inheritance.<br/><br/>]]></body>
