Anya Seton
Katherine came to the court of Edward III at the age of 15: the orphan daughter of a minor herald, betrothed to an obscure knight. And soon, the beloved mistress of the King's son and the mother of his children.
Anya Seton was born in New York City. She began writing in 1938 with a short story sold to a newspaper syndicate and the first of her ten novels, My Theodosia, was published in 1941. She died in 1990.
'Perhaps the greatest gifts Anya Seton brings to her historical novels are the zest of her narrative, the life she breathes into the most insignificant characters, and the atmosphere of the era she evokes around them' -- Books and Bookmen 'Brilliant historical construction' -- Evening News 'Miss Seton's enthusiasm for both character and period is infectious. Katherine emerges a glowing, vital figure' -- Daily Telegraph 'A great adventure, powerfully told' -- Philippa Gregory 'Anya Seton takes us into other worlds, making us live for a few hours on a grand scale' -- Women's Journal 'wonderful historical novels' -- Alison Weir
