Young love and conviction clash with authority in sixteenth-century England in this exciting and vividly written novel. Challenging times are tenderly and evocatively portrayed in ‘Robbie and Alice – Tudor Voyage’: the second book of Robbie and Alice’s Tudor adventures. 1521. England’s Cardinal Wolsey, doggedly pursuing his ambition to be elected Pope, plots to challenge Spain’s new American empire and so gain prestige from the King of France. Robbie, fifteen years old and Alice, thirteen, find themselves unwittingly at the hub of Wolsey’s plot. Together they do their utmost – while on a journey that takes them to the far side of the world - to thwart it. ‘Robbie and Alice - Tudor Voyage’ is a coming-of-age novel that anyone interested in life in Tudor England should enjoy.

    Throughout the book and the series, Anthony explores how things are not always what they seem - how our 'thinking' often represents our imagined reality rather than what is necessarily true - and examines the nature of the link between thoughts and feelings. In so doing he gives readers the tools they need to understand their thoughts and emotions better and to connect with their inner wellbeing so that they can live happier, more fulfilled lives.
