Mistress to the Crown

I enjoyed one of Martyn's previous books, and I usually like historical novels.  However, I didn't go on with this one.  I felt that the medieval style in which it was written didn't ring true, and I just didn't like the writing at times.  It's a pity, because the character of Jane Shore was sympathetic, and I did like Martyn's descriptions of the sumptuous fashions and textiles of the period.
