Summary:  The follow-up to the author's Battle Royal: The Wars of the Roses: 1440-1462. The Wars of the Roses - England's longest and bloodiest civil war. England, 1462. The Yorkist Edward IV has been king for three years since his victory at Towton. The former Lancastrian King Henry VI languishes in the Tower of London. But Edward will soon alienate his backers by favoring the family of his ambitious wife, Elizabeth Woodville. And he will fall out with his chief supporter, Warwick "the Kingmaker," with dire consequences. The sequel to the author's Battle royal: the Wars of the Roses, 1440-1462, Blood Royal is the second part of a two-volume history of the dynastic wars fought between the houses of Lancaster and York for the English throne from 1450 until 1485. An enthralling, character-driven saga of interwoven families, each chapter narrated from the point of view of a key player in the wider drama. The three Lancastrian attempts to overthrow the Yorkists, ending with the death of Edward's successor, Richard III, at Bosworth in 1485 - and the accession of Henry VII and the rise of the Tudor dynasty.
