Event description 

Join Holly Race at Colchester Castle as she discusses her latest novel, Six Wild Crowns, with Red Lion books. Holly Race’s Six Wild Crowns is a fantasy retelling of the lives of Henry the 8th Wives and features a court teeming with dragons, backstabbing courtiers and strange magic


The king has been appointed by god to marry six queens. Those six queens are all that stand between the kingdom of Elben and ruin. Or so we have been told. Each queen vies for attention.

Clever, ambitious Boleyn is determined to be Henry’s favourite. And if she must incite a war to win Henry over? So be it.

Seymour acts as spy and assassin in a court teeming with dragons, backstabbing courtiers and strange magic. But when she and Boleyn become the unlikeliest of things – allies – the balance of power begins to shift.

Together they will discover an ancient, rotting magic at Elben’s heart.

A magic that their king will do anything to protect. A captivating epic fantasy filled with dragons, court politics and sapphic yearning, perfect for fans of The Priory of the Orange Tree and House of the Dragon.

A ferocious tale of female rage and the strength of sisterhood, Six Wild Crowns is an inventive and fantastical reimagining of Henry VIII’s queens – and their fight to reclaim the power stolen from them
