Recensioner i media

“In this new era of shattered taboos, nothing is off limits, and Pavin’s exploration of the life and death of a young monarch opens the door for more. Scholarship on the monarchy, despite the risks, is growing but it requires additional stimulus, which makes this book all the more compelling.” (Mark S. Cogan, Journal of Contemporary Asia, June 6, 2022)
