Katherine : The classic historical romance

'A great adventure, powerfully told' (Philippa Gregory) A sumptuous tale of passion and danger in the medieval court, Anya Seton's Katherine is an all-time classic. Katherine comes to the court of Edward III at the age of fifteen. The naïve convent-educated orphan of a penniless knight is dazzled by the jousts and the entertainments of court. Nevertheless, Katherine is beautiful, and she turns the head of the King's favourite son, John of Gaunt. But he is married, and she is soon to be betrothed. A few years later their paths cross again and this time their passion for each other cannot be denied or suppressed. Katherine becomes the prince's mistress, and discovers an extraordinary world of power, pleasure and passion.Author: Seton, Anya,author Contributors: Seton, Anya,author Binding: paperback Number Of Pages: 576 Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Format: Import Edition: 1st, New Edition Published/Release Date: 13 Mar 2006 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: Hodder & Stoughton Author/Director/Artist: Anya Seton Dimension (cm): 199x130x37 mm Package Dimension (cm): 39x197x129 mm Item Weight (g): 408 Package Weight (g): 400
