Author Elzbieta Cherezinska
Location Other
Rating Recommended
Book Review The Widow Queen is a historical fiction novel based off of the 10th and 11th century Queen Swietoslawa or Sigrid the Haughty. It follows the events of her life starting as the daughter of the Polish Duke Mieszko, to becoming a Scandinavian queen in her own right. It was enjoyable and informative to learn about a historical/ potentially mythical women who gets little to no notice.
