'Every bit as good as they said it was'
- Observer

'Terrific'
- Margaret Atwood

'As soon as I opened this book I was gripped. I read it almost non-stop'
- The Times

'So original and disconcerting that it will surely come to be seen as a paradigm-shifter'
- Sunday Telegraph

'As soon as I opened the book I was gripped. I read it almost non-stop. When I did have to put it down, I was full of regret that the story was over, a regret I still feel. This is a wonderful and intelligently imagined retelling of a familiar tale from an unfamiliar angle'
- The Times

'A stunning book. It breaks free of what the novel has become nowadays. I can’t think of anything since Middlemarch which so convincingly builds a world'
- Diana Athill, author of Somewhere Towards the End

'This is a beautiful and profoundly human book, a dark mirror held up to our own world. And the fact that its conclusion takes place after the curtain has fallen only proves that Hilary Mantel is one of our bravest as well as our most brilliant writers'
- Olivia Laing, Observer

'A fascinating read, so good I rationed myself. It is remarkable and very learned; the texture is marvellously rich, the feel of Tudor London and the growing household of a man on the rise marvellously authentic. Characters real and imagined spring to life, from the childish and petulant King to Thomas Wolsey's jester, and it captures the extrovert, confident, violent mood of the age wonderfully'
- C.J. Sansom, author of The Shardlake Series

'A magnificent achievement: the scale of its vision and the fine stitching of its detail; the teeming canvas of characters; the style with its clipped but powerful immediacy; the wit, the poetry and the nuance'
- Sarah Dunant, author of The Birth of Venus

'A superb novel, beautifully constructed, and an absolutely compelling read. A novel of Tudor times which persuades us that we are there, at that moment, hungry to know what happens next. It is the making of our English world, and who can fail to be stirred by it?'
- Helen Dunmore, author of Birdcage Walk
