As promised: My review of In the Shadow of Lions. ( A little late, but....)
In the Shadow of Lions is a story as dictated by a guardian angel to a present day woman who needs to hear it.
Two women without freedom face a reign, battles for power, threats of death and superstition. Beliefs collide to bring an alternative and gripping tale of King Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. Historical fans and those who devour great storytelling should find much to like. If martyrdom and torture themes bother you, look before you leap. I found the novel to be a little challenging as I tried to piece together who was who and how they all intersected. But once I got it, the story rocked and rolled.
