"This is one of the great historical enterprises of our time, elegantly constructed, thrillingly told, illuminating every incident and personality that it touches. Nobody who loves history should pass it by."--BBC History Magazine
"Superbly crafted, exhaustively researched, supremely intelligent. . . . Amid all of the twists and turns of war and diplomacy, Sumption's wonderfully measured prose is judiciously spiced by sharply observed, poignant, and amusing snapshots . . . We keenly await Sumption's fifth and concluding volume."--Literary Review
"This fourth volume is an astonishing achievement. [Sumption] has sustained not only his own interest but, even more remarkably, that of his readers. The breadth and depth of his scholarship ranges across national boundaries, turning complex and contradictory sources into a coherent and compelling narrative in a way that, quite simply, has never been surpassed. He writes clearly and incisively, with many a pithy phrase. Unlike many modern historians, he has no fear of expressing forthright opinions . . . but his political acumen is such that one very rarely questions his judgment."--The Telegraph
"This is Game of Thrones history, with plenty of crazed kings, martial heroes, dastardly betrayals, silky clerical types and prisoners rotting in foul dungeons. . . . It is difficult to see that anyone could do this type of history better than Sumption."--The Guardian
"Sumption's huge, masterly, and utterly complete history of the Hundred Years War . . . is one of the great historical undertakings of our age, and Cursed Kings might be its best volume yet."--Sunday Times
