Last week, Open Road Integrated Media, released the first 10 books of Philippa Carr- also known as best-selling author, Jean Plaidy, Victoria Holt- 'Daughters of England' series. The first book of the series is 'Miracle at St. Bruno's.
The Daughters of England, book 1 of 19
'The first book in Philippa Carr’s
celebrated Daughters of England series is at once a love story, a
mystery, and an epic historical saga set during the tumultuous reign of
Henry VIII
This dramatic coming-of-age novel is set in sixteenth-century England, during the chaotic years when Henry VIII stunned the royal court by setting his sights on Anne Boleyn. It’s also the tale of a man whom many believed to be a holy prophet . . . until a shocking truth is unearthed in the shadows of a centuries-old abbey.'
Today, the rest of this magnificent collection is being released- featuring: Saraband for Two Sisters!
The Daughters of England, book 4 of 19
Twins Angelet and Bersaba Landor may look alike, but their personalities couldn’t be more different. Angelet is sweet, gentle, and submissive, while Bersaba is secretive, sensual, and headstrong. When the sisters are separated by forces beyond their control, Bersaba finds her life taking a dark turn.
After years apart, the twins are reunited within the echoing halls of Far Flamstead.As Angelet finds herself at the mercy of the manor’s secret past, Bersaba gives in to a perilous temptation. Bersaba will risk everything—even her life—for the love of one man. Against the backdrop of seventeenth-century England, a time of bloody revolt and new beginnings, Bersaba and Angelet discover that the ties that bind them can also tear them apart.'
Jean Plaidy collectors cannot pass up this fantastic new release!
Which Plaidy are you reading?
Oh, wow! :D I planned to do a re-read of the series (over the next two years). I think I'll covert to ebook --- the paper copies I have are all used books and from different imprints. I'm going to use Nook gift cards to start me off.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it exciting?! The Miracle at St Bruno's (and probably the other Carr's) are available on NetGalley too!
ReplyDeleteWe are going to start reading The Miracle at St Bruno's at the Goodreads Plaidy group on March 23, 2013!!! Come join in the discussions, all are welcome to participate in the comments!
Here is the group address, and here is the discussion topic for the book.
Christina- the ebooks are so much easier! But the problem is that when you're collecting, you want all those oldies but goodies!!

ReplyDeleteLatest Plaidy read: the Catherine de Medici trilogy. It was great reading! I was new to reading this trilogy and enjoyed every page. When I checked the end pages in "Queen Jezebel" (the US edition) for an upcoming Plaidy reissue...nothing. :(
I'm reading " the lady in the tower "
ReplyDeleteThe best book I've read about Anne Boleyn. I simply love it.
