After Isabel Neville’s sharp loyalty and George of Clarence’s vanity, it is time to meet the man who shaped their fates. Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick, was called the Kingmaker for good reason. Brilliant strategist, ruthless schemer, and master manipulator, he placed crowns on heads and toppled them again when it suited him. But what would his Tinder profile look like today?
Name: Richard Neville
Age: 42 (my influence is timeless)
Location: Warwick Castle
Occupation: Earl of Warwick, brilliant strategist, relentless schemer, master manipulator, and maker of kings
About Me:
I am a strategic thinker who knows how to get what I want. Relentless schemer and master manipulator. Looking for someone who appreciates ambition, loyalty, and the thrill of rebellion. Bonus points if you are ready to help me shape the future of England.
Interests:
Outthinking everyone at court
Playing kings against one another
Creating alliances, then breaking them
Winning at any cost
Red Flags:
🚩 Change sides when it suits me
🚩 Ruthless ambition
🚩 Known to make enemies of allies
🚩 Never content with peace
History says I died in 1471, but no chronicle can capture the full weight of my ambition. The author has taken inspiration from me for her Lochlainn series, where you will meet a figure every bit as brilliant, dangerous, and impossible to forget. You will find the series on Amazon and in the author shop on this website - and really, you should buy it now.
PS: The author is also writing a book where I appear under my true name. Keep your eyes open for Fatal Alliance, due in March 2026, if she can stop wasting her time on cute cats and dogs videos online.”
