關於產品
Product Information
The New York Times bestseller that tells the story of Britain's greatest and worst dynasty--"a real-life Game of Thrones " ( The Wall Street Journal ) -- by the author of The Templars The first Plantagenet king inherited a blood-soaked kingdom from the Normans and transformed it into an empire stretched at its peak from Scotland to Jerusalem. In this epic history, Dan Jones vividly resurrects this fierce and seductive royal dynasty and its mythic world. We meet the captivating Eleanor of Aquitaine, twice queen and the most famous woman in Christendom; her son, Richard the Lionheart, who fought Saladin in the Third Crusade; and King John, a tyrant who was forced to sign Magna Carta, which formed the basis of our own Bill of Rights. This is the era of chivalry, of Robin Hood and the Knights Templar, the Black Death, the founding of Parliament, the Black Prince, and the Hundred Year's War. It will appeal as much to readers of Tudor history as to fans of Game of Thrones .

Reviews
"The risk with a long dynastic history is that it becomes just one damn thing after another, and the reader gets lost in the snowstorm of names and events. Jones avoids this with a combination of gripping storytelling and pin-sharp clarity. . . . The Plantagenets is a satisfying as well as an enjoyable read. There is no need for added goblins in this real life Game of Thrones." - The Literary Review, "This is an exciting period and Jones describes it with verve. He has a keen appreciation of how power was seized and wielded by medieval monarchs, and the way they manipulated history, religion and symbolism in the service of kingship. . . . Medieval history is enjoying its time in the sun again thanks to some excellent writers. Heaven be praised for that." -The New Statesman, Praise for The Plantagenets "Blood-soaked medieval England springs to vivid life in Jones's highly readable, authoritative, and assertive history." -Publishers Weekly "A novelistic historical account of the bloodline that 'stamped their mark forever on the English imagination' . . . Perhaps Jones' regular column in the London Standard has given him a different slant on history; however he manages, it's certainly to our benefit. . . . For enjoyable historical narratives, this book is a real winner." -Kirkus Reviews "Outstanding . . . Majestic in its sweep, compelling in its storytelling, this is narrative history at its best. A thrilling dynastic history of royal intrigues, violent skullduggery, and brutal warfare across two centuries of British history." -Simon Sebag Montefiore, bestselling author of Jerusalem: The Biography "The Plantagenets played a defining part in shaping the nation of England, and Dan Jones tells their fascinating story with wit, verve, and vivid insight. This is exhilarating history-a fresh and gloriously compelling portrait of a brilliant, brutal, and bloody-minded dynasty." -Helen Castor, author of She-Wolves: The Women Who Ruled England before Elizabeth "This is history at its most epic and thrilling. I would defy anyone not to be right royally entertained by it." -Tom Holland "Jones has written a magnificently rich and glittering medieval pageant, guiding us into the distant world of the Plantagenets with confidence. This riveting history of an all-too-human ruling House amply confirms the arrival of a formidably gifted historian." -Sunday Telegraph "Entertaining and informative . . . Jones has produced an absorbing narrative that will help ensure that the Plantagenet story remains 'stamped on the English imagination' for another generation." -Sunday Times (London) "Traditional narrative history at its best." -The Spectator "Jones, a protégé of David Starkey, writes with his mentor's erudition but also exhibits novelistic verve and sympathy. . . . This is a great popular history, whether you are au fait with the machinations of medievalism or whether Magna Carta mystifies you. . . . The Plantagenets is proof that contemporary history can engage with the medieval world with style, wit and chutzpah." -The Observer (London) "This action-packed narrative is, above all, a great story, filled with fighting, personality clashes, betrayal and bouts of the famous Plantagenet rage. . . . Jones is an impressive guide to this tumultuous scene. . . . The Plantagenets succeeds in bringing an extraordinary family arrestingly to life." -Daily Telegraph "An excellent book . . . The Plantagenets is a wonderful gallop through English history. Powerful personalities, vivid descriptions of battles and tournaments, ladies in fine velvet and knights in shining armour crowd the pages of this highly engaging narrative." -The Evening Standard, "A dashing historian goes swift with a colourful chronicle of the kings who made England. . . . Jones pulls the hectic centuries into a coherent whole." - The Independent, "Jones has written a magnificently rich and glittering medieval pageant, guiding us into the distant world of the Plantagenets with confidence. This riveting history of an all-too-human ruling House amply confirms the arrival of a formidably gifted historian." - Sunday Telegraph, Praise for The Plantagenets "A novelistic historical account of the bloodline that 'stamped their mark forever on the English imagination' . . .

The Plantagenets is a wonderful gallop through English history. Powerful personalities, vivid descriptions of battles and tournaments, ladies in fine velvet and knights in shining armour crowd the pages of this highly engaging narrative." - The Evening Standard, " The Plantagenets offer a glaring contrast between their even balance of outstanding kings and outstandingly bad ones. This adds to the already exciting dynamics of a dramatic period, captured to great effect in Dan Jones's big book on a big subject. . . . He succeeds admirably. It is traditional narrative history at its best." - The Spectator, "Outstanding . . . Majestic in its sweep, compelling in its storytelling, this is narrative history at its best. A thrilling dynastic history of royal intrigues, violent skullduggery, and brutal warfare across two centuries of British history." -Simon Sebag Montefiore, author of Jerusalem, "This is history at its most epic and thrilling.

Jones is an impressive guide to this tumultuous scene. . . . The Plantagenets succeeds in bringing an extraordinary family arrestingly to life." -Daily Telegraph, "Entertaining and informative . . . Jones cuts through these myths effectively, marshalling primary sources to introduce the reader to the actual men who wore the English crown. . . . Jones's work benefits from his colourful and engaging style. . . . He has produced an absorbing narrative that will help ensure that the Plantagenet story remains 'stamped on the English imagination' for another generation." - Sunday Times (London), "Jones, a protégé of David Starkey, writes with his mentor's erudition but also exhibits novelistic verve and sympathy. . . . This is a great popular history, whether you are au fait with the machinations of medievalism or whether Magna Carta mystifies you. . . . The Plantagenets is proof that contemporary history can engage with the medieval world with style, wit and chutzpah. It is a long book at more than 600 pages, but remains engaging throughout." - The Observer (London), "The Plantagenets played a defining part in shaping the nation of England, and Dan Jones tells their fascinating story with wit, verve, and vivid insight. This is exhilarating history-a fresh and gloriously compelling portrait of a brilliant, brutal, and bloody-minded dynasty." -Helen Castor, author of She-Wolves, "Dan Jones' epic portrait of the medieval royals is a timely reminder that things haven't always been so rosy for those on the throne. The House of Plantagenet ruled England for more than two centuries, giving us eight generations of our best and worst kings and queens - and some bloody, brutal and brilliant tales to match." - GQ, Praise for The Plantagenets "Blood-soaked medieval England springs to vivid life in Jones's highly readable, authoritative, and assertive history." -Publishers Weekly "They may lack the glamour of the Tudors or the majesty of the Victorians, but the Plantagenets are just as essential to the foundation of modern Britain. . . . The great battles against the Scots and French and the subjugation of the Welsh make for thrilling reading but so do the equally enthralling struggles over succession, the Magna Carta, and the Provisions of Oxford. . . . Written with prose that keeps the reader captivated throughout accounts of the span of centuries and the not-always-glorious trials of kingship, this book is at all times approachable, academic, and entertaining." -Booklist "A novelistic historical account of the bloodline that 'stamped their mark forever on the English imagination' . . . Perhaps Jones' regular column in the London Standard has given him a different slant on history; however he manages, it's certainly to our benefit. . . . For enjoyable historical narratives, this book is a real winner." -Kirkus Reviews "Outstanding . . . Majestic in its sweep, compelling in its storytelling, this is narrative history at its best.

The result is a history book that frequently reads like a novel and can be opened to any chapter." -Tampa Bay Times "Blood-soaked medieval England springs to vivid life in Jones's highly readable, authoritative, and assertive history." -Publishers Weekly "They may lack the glamour of the Tudors or the majesty of the Victorians, but the Plantagenets are just as essential to the foundation of modern Britain. . . .
