Pre-order BOLEYN TRAITOR now – Philippa Gregory’s landmark return to the Tudor court, coming Autumn 2025 … From the bestselling author of The Other Boleyn Girl, Philippa Gregory, comes a wonderfully atmospheric evocation of the court of Henry VIII and his final queens. 1539. Anne of Cleves wins the dangerous prize of becoming Henry VIII’s fourth wife. From the start, Anne’s royal blood, education and fierce intelligence count for nothing as the king pursues young Katherine Howard. Katherine is a pawn in the political manoeuvres of her ambitious family; unprepared for the dangers that await, she steps into their trap. At her side is kinswoman Jane Boleyn, who has served – and betrayed – one queen already: her sister-in-law Anne, who died on Henry’s scaffold. Will Jane betray a second queen to the headsman? As the three women’s fates entwine in the most volatile court in Europe, each must survive an increasingly tyrannical, murderous king. With an exclusive afterword written and read by Philippa Gregory, exploring the inspiration behind The Boleyn Inheritance.

Princess Florizella may live in a classic fairy-tale world, but she's no ordinary princess...These three stories were originally published under the titles Princess Florizella, Princess Florizella and the Wolves and Princess Florizella and the Giant.They were originally dedicated to her daughter but have been reimagined in this edition which she has dedicated to her grandchildren."Princess Florizella was friends with some of the princesses who had studied the Princess Rules, and behaved just as the Rules said they should. Florizella thought their hair was lovely: so golden and so very long. And their clothes were nice: so richly embroidered. And their shoes were delightful: so tiny and handmade in silk. But their days bored her to death..."Instead, Princess Florizella rides her horse, Jellybean, all over the kingdom, having adventures of her own..."...perfect for newish readers who are gaining confidence and ready for a challenge" The Times Review"These are enchanting, simply written stories that have lost none of their pertinence - and this timely new edition deserves to win Florizella another generation of admirers." 5 star review in the Saturday Telegraph

The bestselling, critically acclaimed new women’s history book from Philippa Gregory for 2025 – adapted for teen and YA readers! Today, when we think of women of the past, we often think of the 1800s and 1900s – crinolines and stage coaches, bonnets and balls – a time when women were told they were naturally inferior to men, and must stay at home while men went out to work and have fun. HUGE MISTAKE! There is so much more to women’s history than bonnets and big dresses! Ordinary women have been doing extraordinary things FOR EVER – it just didn’t make the history books (written by men!). Join multi-award-winning author Philippa Gregory as she tells the story of ordinary English women, making history for 900 years. Meet farmers, highwaywomen, pirates, ‘female husbands’, slaves, soldiers, criminals, writers, inventors, rioters and more – protesting, working, playing, taking risks, getting rich (and getting even!). Their story is one of ingenuity, diversity, rebellion, survival – and sisterhood. Adapted by Philippa Gregory from her best-selling, critically acclaimed Normal Women. This edition for younger readers has simplified, age-tailored content, delivered in bitesize sections, and is illustrated throughout by award-winning printmaker Alexis Snell.

I bet you think of women in the “Olden Days” as princesses in towers, rather than super-strong sports women? Think again! Women were at the top of most sports until about the 1800s – when long dresses and tight corsets slowed them down. They were told sport would make them ill and suddenly everyone forgot that women of all ages had run, fought, ridden, and played all kinds of sport – it was just missing from the history books. Women were fast runners and skilled boxers. They were playing football, cricket, golf, tennis and hockey, riding horses and racing boats, Adapted from her best-selling, critically acclaimed series Normal Women, join multi-award-winning author Philippa Gregory as she tells the stories missing from the record.
