Description

Set in England during the Wars of the Roses, the House of York has won the civil war against the House of Lancaster. Edward the VI is the current King, but his deformed and jealous brother Richard, Duke of Gloucester, aspires to take the throne. Through conspiracy, manipulation, and several murders, Richard’s violent rise to power leads to his defeat in a final battle against the earl of Richmond of House Lancaster.
