No one expected the final Plantagenet King of England to be a media star after 528 years. Curious readers might begin with The Daughter of Time, a short novel from mystery writer Josephine Tey. Her main character detective has the opportunity to examine the case against Richard and his missing nephews which takes the reader through the pro and anti factions from across the centuries.

The best non-fiction is from John Ashdown-Hill, member of the Royal Historical Society and the Richard III Society. His 2013 book The Last Days of Richard III and the fate of his DNA is superb. The focus is entirely on King Richard during 1485 including a calendar and itinerary for the year plus timetable on Bosworth field. Illustrations are plentiful, and the author describes his work going back 16 generations to find DNA from the last survivor of Richard’s line for comparison with the king’s skeleton.
