Modern marriage and politics have nothing over the royal court of King Henry VIII. The Wolf Hall Trilogy includes Wolf Hall, Bring up the Bodies (both read by Simon Vance) and The Mirror & the Light, read by Joseph Kloska. These titles represent more than 15 years of extensive research and superb writing by English writer Dame Hilary Mary Mantel. The trilogy covers the rise and fall of Thomas Cromwell in the court of Henry VIII, featuring Anne Boleyn, Thomas More, Jane Seymour, and other political and royal players from Tudor England.
