1558. This book explores the relationship of Robert Dudley and Queen Elizabeth I in the first two years of succession. Dudley, a married man to Amy Robert, is the most unpopular man in England. He'd known the Queen in childhood and supported her when she was in the Tower at the same time he was incarcerated. HIs ambition was to be King England and France by marrying Elizabeth. The suspicious circumstance of Amy's death/murder rules out his eligibility. ( )

My least favorite of the series. Drawn out and boring. The only thing I did enjoy was how it sort of came full cicle with Elizabeth's treatment of lovers and Henry's. Although she was much more emotionally attached and less brutal but still Tudor pride comes first. ( )

Queen Elizabeth I is known for being the Virgin Queen so to read a book that demonstrates her affection for a man while her advisors recommend she marries a Prince is extremely interesting. It makes this famous figure head seem more human and asks the question was she just a girl in love with the wrong man? ( )

I finally made it to the end of this audio book, but I really don't know why I even bothered. The Virgin's Lover was far less engaging than Gregory's White Queen....partly because White Queen covered a more interesting time for the monarchy, but partly because it was at least twice as long as necessary. And while I know it is true that history suggests Queen Elizabeth loved Robert Dudley, I hardly think the pitiful, lovesick woman depicted in this novel could have held the throne for forty-plus years.

All the bells in Norfolk were ringing for Elizabeth, pounding the peal into Amy's head, first the treble bell screaming out like a mad woman, and then the whole agonizing, jangling sob till the great bell boomed a warning that the whole discordant carillon was about to shriek out again.

All the bells in Hertfordshire were ringing for Elizabeth, pounding the peal into her head ... Elizabeth threw open the shutters of Hatfield Palace, flung open the window, wanting to be drowned in the noise, deafened by her own triumph ... Elizabeth laughed out loud at the racket which hammered out the news: poor sick Queen Mary was dead at last, and Princess Elizabeth was the uncontested heir. “Thank God,” she shouted up at the whirling clouds.
Cecil was a great one for lists; their march down the page matched the orderly progression of his thinking.
William Hyde summoned his sister to his office, the room where he transacted the business of his estate ... He was seated behind the great table, which was circular and sectioned with drawers, each bearing a letter of the alphabet. The table could turn on its axis toward the landlord and each drawer had the contracts and rent books of the tenant farmers, filed under the initial letter of their name. Lizzie remarked idly that the drawer marked Z had never been used, and wondered that no one thought to make a table which was missing the X and the Z, since these must be uncommon initial letters in English.
