"Charles IV is now king of France, but as things settle within his own country turmoil brews across the sea. His sister Isabella is married to the weak and impulsive English king, Edward II. As political infighting and military defeat plague Edward, Isabella deserts her husband and flees to France with her lover Roger Mortimer, a rebellious English baron, in the hope of raising an army. But it is a brave man that believes he can bed the so-called 'She-Wolf of France' and survive the curse of the accursed kings."--Back cover

Maurice Druon was born in Paris. He is the nephew of the writer Joseph Kessel, with whom he wrote the Chant des Partisans, which, with music composed by Anna Marly, was used as an anthem by the French Resistance during the Second World War.In 1948 he received the Prix Goncourt for his novel Les grandes familles. On December 8, 1966, he was elected to the 30th seat of the Académie française, succeeding Georges Duhamel.While his scholarly writing earned him a seat at the Académie, he is best known for a series of seven historical novels published in the 1950s under the title Les Rois Maudits (The Accursed Kings).He was Minister of Cultural Affairs in 1973 and 1974 in Pierre Messmer's cabinet, and a deputy of Paris from 1978 to 1981.Source:Wikipedia
