Elizabeth the golden age

The reign of Queen Elizabeth I was a time of war, passion, and spectacular achievement. Elizabeth: The Golden Age finds Elizabeth facing bloodlust for her throne and familial betrayal. Growing keenly aware of the changing religious and political tides of late sixteenth-century Europe, Elizabeth faces an open challenge from the Spanish King Philip II, who is determined to restore England to Catholicism with his powerful army and dominating armada.Preparing to go to war to defend her empire, Elizabeth struggles to balance ancient royal duties with an unexpected vulnerability: her love for the seafarer Sir Walter Raleigh. But he remains forbidden for a queen who has sworn body and soul to her country.Yet as she charts her course abroad, treachery is the rot behind the glittering royal throne. Her most trusted adviser uncovers an assassination plot that could topple the throne, and the traitors may even include Elizabeth's own cousin Mary Stuart.Based on the sequel to the Academy Award®-winning Elizabeth, Elizabeth: The Golden Age tells the thrilling tale of an era—the story of one woman's crusade to control love, crush enemies, and secure her position as a beloved icon of the Western world.GenresHistorical FictionHistoricalFictionRomanceMedia Tie InTudor PeriodBritish Literature297 pages, PaperbackFirst published September 25, 200759 people are currently readingAbout the authorThe daughter of two philosophy professors, I grew up surrounded by books.

Historic figures – and also when you’re reading them. It is easy to mistake a fictional account of real events for what really happened. But this is only how the author wanted Elizabeth and other figures to appear. While I’m sure she has done her research (I assume so anyway), there is no one alive today who really knows what Elizabeth was thinking or feeling. Just something to keep in the back of your mind when you’re reading this.Elizabeth: The Golden Age is part of the story of Queen Elizabeth and focuses on the threats of assassination she faced from her cousin, Mary Queen of Scots, and her conspirators, from the Spanish king Philip and also on Elizabeth’s love affair with captain and explorer of the new world, Walter Raleigh. I really enjoyed Matthew Reilly’s The Tournament, a fictional imagining of an event from Elizabeth’s childhood, and my aunt, who bought me the book, thought I would enjoy this too.What I didn’t mention (if you haven’t worked it out already), is that it is a film novelization. Not only do we have Cate Blanchett on the cover, but we also encounter the clumsiness of structure, plot and dialogue that is so often found in other film novelizations. I haven’t read one film novelization done well. You can translate books to movies, but it just doesn’t work the other way. That is true for Elizabeth: The Golden Age.I would love to read an actual historical novel, based on more than just

And Captain America: Civil War (2016). The prologue finds Mr. Incredible saving a building jumper from committing suicide, only to later find himself sued because the would-be victim “didn’t ask to be saved.” The concept posits that the Golden Age of superheroes is over; the age of joyless reality has begun. With this change, government-sponsored superheroes become the target of personal injury lawsuits that find superheroes culpable for collateral damage. Payouts, with the checks written by the federal government, represent too many taxpayer dollars for the administration to continue paying, and so superheroes retire, enlisting in a federally sponsored relocation program in which they retreat from the public eye. Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl resign to become Bob and Helen Parr. Three children later, they have settled firmly into residential life, with Helen keeping the family together as Bob, now a wage slave in the bureaucratic world of insurance, spends his evenings reminiscing about his glory days with Lucius (Samuel L. Jackson), formerly the ice-slinging Frozone.Bird’s story finds Bob broken out of his suburban malaise by a mysterious woman, Mirage (Elizabeth Peña), who claims to be from a top-secret division of the government. Mirage offers him the chance to don the Mr. Incredible costume again. On a secret island location, Mr. Incredible will help a clandestine scientist test and improve his robotic inventions. This requires that Bob keep secrets from Helen, who wants her husband to protect the family by not taking unnecessary risks; instead, he lies about going on business trips, while in actuality he’s away at a futuristic base, eating shrimp cocktail and living the good life. (Had the film not been rated PG, one could imagine an affair between Mr. Incredible and Mirage). But he soon learns that his trips have provided a new nemesis—Syndrome (Jason Lee), the

Covered wagon. Even there, I was never without a book in hand and loved reading and history more than anything. I studied English Literature and Medieval History at the University of Notre Dame. Writing is a natural offshoot of reading, and my first novel, And Only to Deceive, was published in 2005. I'm the author of the long-running Lady Emily Series as well as the novel Elizabeth: The Golden Age. One of the best parts of being an author is seeing your books translated, and I'm currently in love with the Japanese editions of the Emily books.I played nomad for a long time, living in Indiana, Amsterdam, London, Wyoming, Vermont, Connecticut, and Tennessee before settling down. My husband, the brilliant British novelist Andrew Grant (I may be biased but that doesn't mean I'm wrong) and I live in southeastern Wyoming. I still don't have a covered wagon, but a log house goes a long way toward fulfilling my pioneer fantasies. Andrew makes sure I get my English characters right, and I make sure his American ones sound American.Ratings & ReviewsFriends & Following Community ReviewsDisplaying 1 - 27 of 27 reviews358 reviews5 followersMay 14, 2014There's nothing too special about this book. I thought it was the novel that the movie was based on. however, it is the novel based on the movie. It reads like a script and moves like a movie. Most of the scenes fall flat without Cate Blanchett performing them. Also, it's almost entirely fictional...as the author herself
