Basically what the title says. I'm in the mood for a good TL centered on the Tudor dynasty. Would prefer a Catholic England or one that doesn't involve Anne Boleyn as a success (ie having a son) but I'm not picky.
This disqualifies the best TL of the period, sadly, as this is a Lutheran-leaning England with Boleyn wank, so to say. I don't remember any Premium Quality "Henry VIII dies early" TLs.Would prefer a Catholic England or one that doesn't involve Anne Boleyn as a success (ie having a son)
https://www.alternatehistory.com/fo...eyn-wants-mistress-boleyn-gets.393746/page-11 Constantine, have you tried this? Despite having Boleyn in the name, the PoD is her being permitted to marry Henry Percy, thus never being a Queen. England stays Catholic, though Henry VIII keeps being horribly unlucky with sons (unlike Mary, who TTL is married to James V of Scotland after her mother death).
OK one other TL I'm looking for. Don't remember all the details but it had James IV succeeded by a daughter (a Mary Queen of Scots come early) and I believe Henry VIII dies in battle, leaving Catherine of Aragon in charge of England for a surviving son and Margaret Tudor ruling Scotland. It also had Margaret betrothing her daughter to her nephew. That's all I remember. Any ideas of which TL this is?
