Hey there Earthlings, Alternatives and Trollers. Put down that mouse and lend an ear. Welcome to The Bandersnatch blog where we talk weird, wacky and wondrous. I'm The Bandersnatch and I have no idea what I'm doing.
As you should know Tuesdays is book blog day were we talk about one particular book and pretty much run with it. Today's blog is on The Exiled by Posie Graeme-Evens.
The Enchanting Anne faces the challenge of raising her child in exile. Always resourceful, she flourishes as a merchant and is able to support her household. But the local businessmen aren't pleased about competing with a woman and her foes are multiplying around her, desperate to put her back in what they believe is her rightful place.
Anne has a secret that her enemies could use to destroy her. Her beloved son is the project of a passionate affair with the king, Edward IV, who knows nothing of his existence. If this information were to fall into the wrong hands, it could prove lethal for Anne and her child. She struggles to find peace in a world of duplicity and suspicion, where adversaries masquerade as allies, and someone very powerful wants her dead. Yet, despite the pressure of her enemies, what pains Anne the most is that she is unsure when or if she will see her darling Edward again.
The Exiled is book two in the War of the Roses series and was published on October 1st 2003 published with Hodder and Stoughton. I quite like this book, its a good sequel to the first book The Innocent however it does lack a little of what the first book has/had I get that there's a time jump and the story is a continuation, But I feel it could have benefited from continuing in the firsts guise. I give the book a 7/10.
Born to a novelist named Eleanor and an RAF Pilot in Nottingham, England, Graeme Evens spent her childhood travelling around accompanying her parents to Egypt during the Suez Crisis and to Cyprus during the Turkish-Greek Cypriot conflicts in the process. She also bounced around several schools including The Fahan School in Hobart, Tasmania and the Wilderness school in Adelaide south Australia, where she topped the state in Ancient History. Graeme-Evans went onto marry her first husband Tim Jacobs in 1971 and a year later in 1972 whilst studying at Flinders University had her first daughter.
At 25 Graeme-Evens got her first job with a New Zealand TV props department, eventually climbing the ladder as an assistant editor then editor with the Tasmanian Film Corporation, her credits include sound and picture assistant editor for “Fatty and George” and “Manganine” as well as various documentaries. During the '80's Graeme-Evens would end up being on the production teams of various successful TV shows, In 1990 Graeme-Evens married her second husband Andrew Blaxland (What a surname!!!) later on co-founding the production company Millennium Pictures. In November 2005 Graeme-Evens resigned from Nine to take up a multi-book deal with Simon and Schuster resulting in the publishing of six books since then.
