Title: Bad writing can ruin even the most fascinating of stories.
Product review: This book is just awful. The story of five reigning consorts is theoretically fascinating reading, but the writing is so bad, you just feel irritated. Awkward, stilted prose -- often repetitive, often cliched, often overly dramatic -- this book is a pain to read.
