Three novels by the prize-winning international-bestselling author in
one volume —the complete saga of Catherine the Great’s passionate
rise to power. The Romanov Trilogy brings three of Evelyn Anthony’s
most successful works together in one collection following the
dramatic life of Catherine the Great. Rebel Princess: Augusta
Fredericka’s fantasy of reigning as Catherine the Great comes true
after marrying Grand Duke Peter Romanov. But the repulsive—and
sexually and emotionally impotent—heir to the Russian throne is not
the man she expects. A succession of lovers may fulfill her, but
they’ve also left her vulnerable to her seditious husband’s plot
to have her arrested for treason. Curse Not the King: Since her
husband’s assassination, Catherine has ruled for a decade. But her
son—the rightful heir to the throne—has never forgiven her seizure
of power, or forgotten his father’s murder. Little does he know the
sacrifices she’s made—as mother and empress—to safeguard his
liberty and life. Now, all Catherine can do is pray that her son’s
blind rage won’t destroy them both. Far Flies the Eagle:
Following victory in Europe, Gen. Napoleon Bonaparte is ready for his
next conquest: Russia. What has he to fear from such a young czar? But
Alexander, the grandson of Catherine the Great, should not be
underestimated. A powerful adversary, he’s already murdered his own
father to ascend to the throne. Vanquishing the French emperor will be
a pleasure. Sweeping from Paris to the Kremlin to the battlefield,
Anthony’s historically authentic trilogy offers a fascinating
glimpse into the Romanov family and of the grand ambitions of one
woman. “Miss Anthony knows how to highlight the . . . drama and
intrigue that gradually change a trembling girl into a woman of
brilliance and power” (The New York Times).
