The Eagle and the Hart: The Tragedy of Richard II and Henry IV by Helen Castor is a gripping story about power struggles in medieval England. It focuses on the political drama and personal fallout that came from the clash between Richard II, known as the “white hart,” and Henry IV, the “eagle.”

For those of you who love historical medieval fiction with a dark touch:

My friend Mette Holm has released a new book in her Mowbray Chronicles series today (Book 4).

I've read some of her series (not really my genre) and I will say the stories are quite detailed and fascinating, if a little too dark for my liking. But life was hard back then, even for a nobleman, full of intrigue, secrets and betrayal.

Find her book here:
