In the Shadow Of Lions, paperback by Ginger Garrett
Christian Historical fiction novel about Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn, his mistress-turned-queen. Paperback in like-new condition except for some sticker residue on top front corner.

From the back of the book: "I am the first writer, The Scribe. My books lie open before the Throne, and someday will be the only witness of your people and their time in this world. The stories are forgotten here, and the Day draws close. I will tell you one of my stories. You will record it."

So begins the narration of one such angel in this sweeping historical tale set during the reign of England's Henry VIII. It is the story of two women, their guardian angels, and a mysterious, subversive book . a book that outrages some, inspires others, and launches the Protestant Reformation.

The devout Anne Boleyn catches the eye of a powerful king and uses her influence to champion an English translation of the Bible—Scriptures the common people could read for themselves. Meanwhile, Rose, a broken, suicidal woman of the streets, is moved to seek God when she witnesses Thomas More's public displays of Christian charity, ignorant of his secret life spent eradicating the same book, persecuting anyone who dares read it.

Historic figures come alive in this thrilling story of heroes and villains, saints and sinners, angels and mortals ... and the sacred book that will inspire you anew.

This book presents their relationship from an alternate: maybe her reasons for demanding marriage were for Christian reasons rather than for personal gain, as I was taught in school? This was a very good book, and I highly recommend it! Free shipping to US only; everywhere else pays exact shipping.
