xI, Richard Plantagenet, The Prequels:
The Coming of Age of Richard III
Complete Edition containing books 1-3, THE ROAD FROM FOTHERINGHAY, A VOUS ME LIE, and CROWN IN EXILE The story of Richard III's childhood and youth, told in first person from his point of view. When Richard's father, the Duke of York, is killed at Wakefield his mother Cecily Neville sends the young boy and his brother George to Burgundy for their safety. Soon, however, their elder brother takes the throne as Edward IV and the children return to a very different England as royal princes. Richard is sent to the household of the Earl of Warwick at Middleham, a happy and peaceful time, but as tensions erupt between Edward and Warwick he is recalled to his brother's court, where the King rules with his new Queen, the beautiful but unpopular Elizabeth Woodville. Warwick rebels and young Richard's loyalties are stretched, but he sides with his brother--unlike George who marries Isabel Neville against the King's will. Richard finds his own loves, however, and at a young age becomes father to two illegitimate children, John and Katherine. He also begins to take on adult responsibilities and gathers a loyal following--although he makes his first enemies too, when he stands up to Lord Thomas Stanley in the matter of Hornby Castle.
Then the situation in England grows grave as Warwick's faction rises against Edward, and the King decided to flee overseas to Burgundy. Richard follows him into the eye of the storm on his eighteen birthday... In Burgundy, Richard and Edward must sweeten the hot-headed Duke Charles, who is married to their sister Margaret but has strong Lancastrian leanings. With additional help of Louis de Gruuthuse, a prominent noble who offers the exiles succour, Charles is eventually won round to helping his wife's kinsmen, and a sizeable army is raised. Edward and Richard set sail and land at Ravenspur in the north. From there they must march with their troops across England--to battle, and maybe to death. (3 books in one volume, over 260,000 words)
