Dark Sovereign

Has anybody read R Fripp's play of this name? There's only one comment & it doesn't tell me enough to decide whether I should read it or not.

The playwright has, in past, posted on this very Forum. If he still visits, from time to time, and sees your query, he may well be glad to direct you where you can read his play....

You can read excerpts of it here:

One warning: He makes Anne eighteen at the time she weds Richard, so don't expect perfect accuracy. It is, however, very good (at least from what the excerpts show).

Seems the book is available on Amazon and the book description is :

William Shakespeare's "Tragedy of Richard the Third" branded King Richard with a nightmare reputation. British author Robert Fripp attacks Shakespeare's interpretation by writing "Dark Sovereign" in Shakespeare's English--a first in four centuries. Fripp's "Dark Sovereign" dramatizes the genuine tragedy of King Richard III while becoming the longest play ever written in renaissance English. Fripp produced investigative television before he set out to overturn Shakespeare's verdict on Richard III.

Having read Robert's Eleanor of Aquataine. I cannot speak any higher of him as an historical invetigator and novelist. The above book is highly reccomended to you. Has he written a book or play?
