Narrated by Richard Mann
Genre: Historical fiction; fantasy
Summary:
Fictional account of a historical queen, with a few fantasy liberties taken here and there.
Additional Comments:
- As Rome took over what is today the United Kingdom, many smaller kingdoms were being run over. Some tried to fight, some tried to cut deals. One man (Boudicca’s husband) left his kingdom half to his daughters and half to the Romans. The Romans kind of ignored that and just took over the kingdom.
- Narrator had a nice voice.
- I enjoyed the end twist.
- Content Warnings: contains a lot of talk of rape and torture (part of the history so no getting around it)
Conclusion:
Very, very short historical fiction account of a brutal time in history, not that today’s much better if you read news headlines. Great if you like historical fiction and can deal with brutal accounts.
