From Nero's paranoid mother - who also became his lover - to Catherine the Great with her interesting "collection" of robust stallions, from Juana the Mad, passionately and sickly in love with Philip the Handsome, to Henry VIII who beheaded his wives when he grew bored of them, and up to the "virgin" Queen Elizabeth or the Romanov family who were obliterated by the wrath of the Bolsheviks, a spicy guide with the scandalous exploits of history's crowned heads, with their conspiracies, extreme rivalries, perversions, and vices, which we certainly never learn about in school.
An anthology of royal peculiarities, rivalries, and scandals that provoke laughter and make the reader realize how little we know about real history.
