The Beheading Game, Author Interview with Rebecca Leeman

I think we’d all love for Anne Boleyn to have been given the chance to get her revenge on King Henry VIII, which is why I was really excited to read The Beheading Game, the delightfully bonkers new piece of historical fiction in which Anne Boleyn wakes up in that famous arrow chest, her head resting at her waist. What follows is a journey in which Anne manages to reattach her head, before going out on a journey of both self discovery and, of course, cold hard revenge. To discuss the story with me, I am pleased to welcome the books author, Rebecca Leeman onto the podcast for the first time. Join Rebecca and I as we discuss how she developed her ideas, the creative choices she made for Anne’s character, what ancient legends inspired the story plus much more!
