It's very entertaining IMO, but I don't recommend it for being historically accurate, no. For that, check out this book.

I really liked Antonia Fraser's The Wives of Henry VIII - she seemed to get at the humanness of the historical figures, and quotes plentifully from contemporary letters and other sources. I'd love to hear an opinion on it from a "real historian" as I'm only an interested amateur.

I'll have to put Starkey's biography on my list - thanks for the recommendation!

I'm not into royalty either but Antonia Frasiers The Wives of Henry VIII was a damn good read. Gave me interesting insights in both court and marriage politics of his reign.
