Exclusive to Audible. Join Alison Weir in the studios talking about her ambitious six part series - Six Tudor Queens. Explaining the process of writing a historical novel and how her passion was first ignited, we are given a glimpse into what it takes to write about well-known but often misunderstood historical figures. Alison Weir is a British writer of history books, and latterly historical novels, mostly in the form of biographies about British royalty.

Over the years of his reign, six different women took their place beside King Henry VIII of England as his wife and queen. But the real stories of the six Tudor queens belong to those who lived among them. Played out in glittering palaces and whispering courts, these are tales of the people who loved and served these women, and those who lied and betrayed them.

Joining us at Audible Studios for a second time is acclaimed historian and best-selling author Alison Weir, who has drawn on a range of sources to produce a startling image of Anna of Kleve: a charming woman loved by all who knew her, even by the King who rejected her. We spoke about Weir's fascination with history and research, the rumours that circulated about Henry VIII’s fourth wife, Anna von Kleve, and which Tudor queen she’d most like to be able to speak to.
