If you have read Forever Amber you will note that Barbara Palmer, Countess of Castlemaine is mentioned quite a bit. From the books point of view Barbara was portrayed as a villiness, a little minx , a wanton beauty and as a woman of extremely strong life force and above all a master in manipulation of the world around her. The same woman graces the pages of Royal Harlot with the same savvy wit but this point of view is hers so the reader gets a more intimate view of her as a person. And of course you might feel as though you want to take her side after all you have read. Every time I read a book about one of these woman I feel like each is justified. Amber, Nelly Gwynn, Barbara Palmer,Barbara Devane. As good as any really good historical biographical fiction. If you love the Restoration & the court of Charles II and the stories about his many mistresses this is a really good book for you.Read full review
