Book excerpt: In early 16th century, life in the City of London was very different for the citizens and the royal household. The first novel is picturing citizen life in London in the early Tudor days. It is the story of the orphan-brothers Stephen and Ambrose, who must find their way in life at a very young age. Differently talented, they apprentice themselves each to an armourer and to a printer. The life of the citizens outside of the royal court is well regulated, but dependant of the court and the nobles and their pleasure. The brothers have to experience the Ill May Day as hundreds of young apprentices in London were involved in a terrible outrage against foreigners, living in London. The Aldermen of the City are helpless against the nobles in their effort to rescue their own sons from the scaffold, but for the intervention of Henry VIII … In the second novel, the life of the household of Henry VIII is presented in the period between 1529 and 1536 in Windsor Castle. A ghost-mystery is interwoven into the historical plot, covering the legend of Herne the Hunter. It is the time during Henry’s first divorce from Catherine of Aragon, his marriage to Anne Boleyn and her execution. Many of the historical figures of the time appear in a good portrayal of every-day-life in a gigantic and formidable castle.
