Intriguing concept, if historically somewhat hard to believe. ;) Offers a neat viewpoint on English involvement in the religious wars in the Netherlands. (  ) RogueBelle | Jul 10, 2009 |  I had not read any of Robin Maxwell's books before reading this, but it definitely made me a fan of her writing. She melds history and fiction perfectly in this novel. Without changing any of history's facts, she contrives a believable "what-if" scenario of Elizabeth having a son. An innovative plot is a must when writing about a much-written about queen of England. ( ) nycbookgirl | Jul 9, 2009 | Maxwell should have stopped with the first book in the series, The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn (  ) dread_ex | Sep 17, 2008 |  no reviews | add a review

Set against the sweeping, meticulously rendered backdrop of court intrigues, international scandals, and England's battle against the Spanish Armada, The Queen's Bastard deftly juxtaposes Elizabeth and Leicester's tumultuous relationship with the memoirs of the adventurous son lost to them -- yet ultimately discovered.
