About this deal

I got this from the library. I was hoping to read things I didn’t know, but it’s truly just a mashup of all of Andersen’s older books and much stolen from other authors. Charles was a neglected child, raised by nannies and basically ignored by his parents. His father, Prince Phillip was, frankly, a terrible bully and basically not a nice man and the Queen was cold and totally engrossed in her role as monarch. This shaped Charles's life and personality and not for the better. Ever since I was a young teenager I have been deeply worried about the way we have shaped our world.’‘I am pleased to see that children across the world […] are now raising the alarm and calling for big changes to happen," wrote the former Prince of Wales. "Their efforts have emphasised the importance of caring about what life will be like in the future – there is a lesson in this for us all."

We see the life of HRH Charles III, when he was still the Prince of Wales, up until the day that his mother, HRH Elizabeth II passed away and he become King.

I’ve been listening to a lot of royal biographies since this summer’s Platinum Jubilee for Queen Elizabeth II but haven’t reviewed them, mainly because the bulk of them are just a rehash of old information portrayed in a new way. The King: The Life of Charles III is the first biography issued of the new king since ascending to the throne upon the death of his mother, Queen Elizabeth.
