The conflicts, hatreds, intrigues, and crimes that plagued the 18-month reign of Louis X are resurrected in the third book of this saga. After having managed to destroy the work of Philip IV's reign in so few months, Louis is poisoned. His death marks the first time in three centuries that a monarch of France has passed away without leaving a male heir.

Best Historical Novel I've read,
By RA "history fan" (Jal, MEX) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Los reyes malditos III: Los venenos de la corona (Los Reyes Malditos / the Acursed Kings) (Paperback)
I can Say many things about this book, but the only one really important is that if you are historically interested in history of France at the 14th century you should definitely read this book. Not only this one but the whole series (7 books)
All this books are relatively short, no more than 300 pages each. They focus on specific Kings of France and all the events of the time. Even if you are not a fan of history, if you like Novels, this saga contains more intrigue, deception, adventures, well shaped characters (as they were real, all of them) than any good modern fiction novel. Español: Puedo decir muchas cosas de este libro, pero lo verdaderamente importante es que si estas interesado en la historia de Francia durante el sigo 14, entonces este libro es para ti. No solamente este libro, sino toda la serie (7 libros). Todos estos libros son relativamente cortos, sin mucha mas de 300 paginas cada uno. Están enfocados reyes de Francia específicos y todos los eventos de su tiempo. Aún si no se es fanático de la novela histórica, si se es fan de novelas, esta saga contiene mas intriga, engaño, aventuras, personales bien estructurados (fueron reales) que cualquier buen novela de ficcion moderna.

This review is from: Los reyes malditos III: Los venenos de la corona (Los Reyes Malditos / the Acursed Kings) (Paperback)
This is an excellent set of books (7 in total) written originally in French. I did buy the series translated into Spanish and the reading in fenomenal. I have seen the TV miniseries (also translated into spanish from the original french) a long time ago and the books, as always, are a lot better.
I did try to get these translated into English and they just do not exist, it is a shame thet editors have not tried to publish this masterpiece in english, they could sell a lot more books. For for those of you that cannot read in French or Spanish, you are missing an extraordinary reading.
