The single season braids all three novels together across its ten episodes..

The ten-episode miniseries intercuts three of Philippa Gregory's Cousins' War novels: The White Queen (Elizabeth Woodville), The Red Queen (Margaret Beaufort), and The Kingmaker's Daughter (Anne Neville). Each novel tells the same period from one woman's point of view, so reading them one at a time gives you a fuller, single-voice version of what the show braided together. Start with The White Queen.
