Enjoyable narrative and good sense of humor. The series move fairly quickly up through good Queen Bess and James the first. After that it will hold you hostage for two entire seasons belaboring the era of Cromwell. At some point the time spent discussing the revolution will exceed the actual time it took for events to unfold.
