Cool, so you have read it?

Does it go through the time of Longshanks fighting off Wallace? Does it concentrate on certain parts of the history in more depth, or just give a breif overview of 1000 years? That is a long long patch of history to cover in one book, but may be good depending on how it is written and what it focuses on......

It starts off in the year 1066 when William the Conqueror took the throne. I have only gotten up though the early Monarchs (The Normans).

The book focuses on all the dark things through a monarchs reign (the plots, betrayal, murder, etc).

It is amazing the things people would go through just to claim the crown of England.
