Edward II's murder at Berkeley Castle in 1327 is one of the most famous and lurid tales in all of English history. But is it true? For over five centuries, few people questioned it, but with the discovery in a Montpellier archive of a remarkable document, an alternative narrative has presented itself: that Edward escaped from Berkeley Castle and made his way to an Italian hermitage. In Long Live the King, medieval historian Kathryn Warner explores in detail Edward's downfall and forced abdication in 1326/27, the role possibly played by his wife Isabella of France, the wide variation in chronicle accounts of his murder at Berkeley Castle and the fascinating possibility that Edward lived on in Italy for many years after his official funeral was held in Gloucester in December 1327.

Charlotte, a Princess Royal, has been living in America for years, cut off by her sister, the queen, when she went against the royal court and married William, a man unsuitable for a royal. She left behind her titles, wealth, family, and the man she truly loved, Lord Rothwell. His dominance frightened her, as she was very young at the time. Now, several years have passed. Charlotte has been a widow for seven years and her sister is on her deathbed. When Lord Rothwell shows up in her garden to take her home, she realizes she is still in love with him. But going home means she will be the new queen. Can she do it? Can she go back and reclaim what is rightfully hers after living in exile all this time? Publisher's Note: This steamy royal fantasy contains a theme of power exchange and second chance love.

Presents results of 15-year-long excavations and landscape research at Berkeley Castle. Combining archaeological results with information from the castle's 20,000 historical documents, the project adds greatly to our understanding of the changes that accompanied the arrival of the Normans, with the erection of a castle on the former minster site.
