Ok, we will stick to doing this the "old fashion" way until the Chat feature is up and running.
I think there are only a handful who read this book anyway ~

Again, these are questions from the back of the book:

Queen Elizabeth and Robert Dudley were childhood playmates and also have in common the experience of being accused of treason and locked in the Tower of London. How does Dudley use this to influence Elizabeth? Is he successful??

He constantly reminds her of his "loyalty" and the similarities they share. I think he was very successful in reminding her of that. She was in constant fear of assassination and did not have many people to trust. Basically, Cecil and Dudley were her constant trusted guys - thus the rivalry mentioned in another question.

I agree. I think he was successful as well. He definately used their experiences to win her over on more than one occassion. I still don't know if it was sincere or just a game for him. I would like to believe it was sincere, but the way the times were then, it was probably all just a game. In the end he lost though didn't he??!!??
