Summary
A bold new analysis of one of history’s most misrepresented women.
History has lied.
Anne Boleyn has been sold to us as a dark figure, a scheming seductress who bewitched Henry VIII into divorcing his queen and his church in an unprecedented display of passion. Quite the tragic love story, right?
Wrong.
In this electrifying exposé, Hayley Nolan explores for the first time the full, uncensored evidence of Anne Boleyn’s life and relationship with Henry VIII, revealing the shocking suppression of a powerful woman.
So leave all notions of outdated and romanticised folklore at the door and forget what you think you know about one of the Tudors’ most notorious queens. She may have been silenced for centuries, but this urgent book ensures Anne Boleyn’s voice is being heard now.

If you’re a fan of Anne- read this!!
Amazing book. So informative and honest without being bias.This truly lifts the lid on the lies that we have been taught about Anne for too long. Hayley has done such a great job with this book- her writing is excellent without overloading you with complicated words and her research is mind blowing,she clearly put so much effort into writing this and I thank her for that.If you love Anne Boleyn I cannot recommend reading this enough!!

Great story ... but
The story was great but the narrator felt flippant and dismissive. Her reading seemed to cheapen the message she was trying to share particularly with the use of the phrasing ‘hashtag’. The narration was over the top and dramatic bordering on cheesy at times (particularly at the beginning).

Interesting
I am a huge tudor history fan and was intrested to hear about this new take on history. I have come out the other side and all i can say is... interesting...there are a lot of radical ideas in this book. Some ideas make sense other idea's of Hayley's less so, if you look at history in it's plainest form they don't add up.
I'm pleased i listened but not one i fell i would listen to again.
Hayley however was a great narrator.

An incredible history emotionally delivered
It’s really emotional and gut wrenching to now know how Anne Boleyn has been misrepresented over the course of the centuries. The performance is brilliant by virtue of the fact that it is delivered by the expert, with all the emotional weight that depth of knowledge brings.

Passionate and Educating
as an avid Anne Boleyn fan, I found this book fascinating as I've been wanted to know the truth about Anne for years. I've found a few bits of information along the way but not nearly as much as I have read here!! Hayley reads this book with absolute passion and I love her enthusiasm. Thank you for allowing our Anne to shine bright again!

Fantastic and fascinating
Absolutely loved this, it was so thorough and detailed. She provided a well investigated account into the life and murder of Anne Boleyn that will completely change the future of how she is viewed. Well done Hayley for speaking Anne’s truth and giving her justice.

Oh Dear
I listened to about half an hour of the narration of this book and gave it up for a bad job, as Hayley Nolan's voice took away any interest in what she was saying, which is a pity, really, as the book is probably quite interesting. There are many books on the life of Anne Boleyn, I suggest shopping around, and listening to the samples before buying - the author is not always the best narrator.

Honest & Passionate
I loved this book. The reading of it was superb, normally performers just read a script but this had emotion and passion in its performance. Clearly (for me, that is) I can see why Anne was stitched up from the authors input.
It’s a very good read…
