Set during the tumultuous period of Henry VIII's reign, this historical novel delves into the dissolution of the monasteries and the moral and religious struggles it sparked. The story follows two brothers, one a devout monk and the other a courtier, as they grapple with loyalty, faith, and family in a changing world. Benson explores themes of sacrifice, conviction, and the conflict between personal beliefs and political pressures.
Robert Hugh Benson (1871-1914) was a writer and priest whose works include science fiction, historical and contemporary fiction, children's books, plays and devotional and religious works. The King's Achievement is historical fiction.
