Book Launch Spotlight: The Falcon's Triumph: A novel of Anne Boleyn (The Falcon's Rise Book 3) by Natalia Richards

Available from Amazon UK and Amazon US

A novel of ambition, love, and betrayal in the Tudor court

A broken heart. A shattered dream. A future she never expected…

Fresh from her time in the dazzling courts of Europe, Anne Boleyn returns to England with charm, wit, and an ambition she dares not reveal. Her place at court and her future in Ireland seem secure. But when a forbidden love affair threatens scandal, Anne is dismissed and disgraced.

Then King Henry VIII takes notice.

Captivated by Anne’s beauty and boldness, the king is determined to have her—not as his mistress, but as his queen. Yet his wife, Queen Katherine of Aragon, stands in his way… and so does the Church. In a kingdom still firmly Catholic, Henry’s obsession with Anne now acts as a smouldering tinder, igniting a political and religious fire that threatens to tear England apart.

Set against the glittering and dangerous backdrop of Tudor England, The Falcon’s Triumph is a gripping tale of love, power, and the woman who would change history.

About the Author

As a curator and historian for over 30 years, Natalia has worked in many museums in Derbyshire and later in London. She also worked free-lance for the History Channel USA as researcher, co-ordinator, and interviewer on the award-winning production 'Secrets of War.' However, her passion since a very early age has been the study of the Tudors, particularly Anne Boleyn and the court of King Henry VIII.  She did not begin writing seriously until around 2008 and originally wanted to write about Anne Boleyn at the English court. However, a great deal had already been written about this period, and Natalia began to look at her earlier life from around 1500 to 1521. The result of her research was 'The Falcon's Rise,’ set at the court of Margaret of Austria. She then followed this up with part two 'The Falcon's Flight'. This second book covers Anne's time at the French court, with Queen Claude, and ends as she is about to return to England. In her spare time, Natalia loves travelling, gardening, rambling, and visiting historic houses, as well as constantly reading and researching the Tudor period. She spends her time between Derbyshire and Chelsea, in London. Find out more at Natalia's website https://www.nataliarichards.com/ and follow her on Facebook and Twitter @nat_wieczorek
