Kathryn the Clever (The Six Lives of Henry VIII Book 5)

He killed his wives, broke from Catholicism and founded his own church. But history could have been quite different for Henry the VIII, as author Leigh Jenkins proves in this alternative history series, if only one key moment had changed in each of his marriages.

The fifth book in the series, Kathryn the Clever, follows Kathryn Howard, the fifth wife of Henry the VIII. Kathryn has always been thought of as a silly, empty headed little girl, but could she be more? How might the history of England changed had Kathryn used her strengths and born Henry a much sought after son?

Jenkins delves inside one of history's greatest enigmas – the mind of King Henry the VIII of England. This intense, often poignant, look at Henry shows that, with a twist of fate, England could have remembered a very different king.
