A new series covering the earlier life of infamous Tudor Queen Anne Boleyn! For fans of Philippa Gregory, Elizabeth Chadwick, Carol McGrath and Anne O'Brien.

A queen in training...

Europe, 1513

Anne Boleyn's path to Henry VIII's heart - and the throne - begins not in France, but at the court of Europe's most powerful woman, Margaret of Austria.

Anne enters the world of the Burgundian-Habsburg Netherlands as one of Margaret's eighteen maids of honour, who thrive under the guidance of their highly intelligent ruler.

Anne struggles with cliques and jealousies at court, and when Erasmus of Rotterdam arrives with ideas of reform, Anne starts to question tradition and sets her sights high, determined to leave her mark on the world.

But political machinations intervene, cutting short Anne's time at Margaret's court, and launching her to France.

Armed with the skills learned under the Netherlands' brilliant ruler, Anne inches closer to her destiny...

Can she achieve her ambitious desires? Will Margaret's formidable example influence Anne's future?

Or will this young maid struggle to blossom in a man's world...?

MAID OF HONOUR is a thoroughly researched, fascinating historical novel set during the 16th century in Europe. It is the first book in the Anne Boleyn Chronicles series. It was the CHAUCER AWARDS Grand Prize Winner, 2024.

'Wonderfully detailed and entirely enjoyable. This is a young Anne in whom I absolutely believe, and who does much to explain the woman she'd become.' - Sarah Gristwood, author of Game of Queens

'a wonderful glimpse into history and a reminder of Anne Boleyn's enduring legacy as a woman who was ahead of her times, and paid the ultimate price. This novel is packed full of deftly-woven research. It has many standout features, but the highlight is the completely immersive nature of Gaston's writing.' - Historical Novel Company
