The Queens of England series is Victoria Holt’s most extensive work, with 27 books covering the women who wore or influenced the English crown across several centuries. The series overlaps with some of her other work, as many of the same historical periods appear, but the focus here is specifically on the queens and their perspectives.
From medieval consorts to powerful rulers like Elizabeth I and Victoria, the series gives each queen her own story. Holt’s approach treats these women as individuals rather than footnotes in their husbands’ or sons’ stories, which gives the series a distinctly personal feel even when covering well-documented historical events.
