I've read and enjoyed the books. The Tudors and Plantagenet series by Philippa Gregory is a series that is worth reading if you're into historical dramas, but it's very long and detailed. There are a few diversions and omissions from the source material, but it is overall well done.
Most of the books focus on only a single character's point of view, and there are many books that cover the same time period from different characters' viewpoints. White Queen, the adaptation, selects chapters and plot events from multiple books in the series, doing a fantastic job weaving together the story of political intrigue in the royal courts of Edward IV and Richard III of England from the viewpoints of their Queens, advisors, and adversaries.
Recommended for people who enjoy historical dramas but don't mind some historical inaccuracies. Recommended for people who enjoyed the books, but don't mind some departures from the source.
Good Soundtrack Great set and costumes Good casting, script and acting.
