Pavane.
Gollancz. 1966

1588: Queen Elizabeth is felled by an assassin’s bullet. Within the week, the Spanish Armada sets sail, and its victory changes the course of history.

1968: England is still dominated by the Church of Rome. There are no telephones, no television, no nuclear power. As Catholicism and the inquisition tighten their grip, rebellion is stirring.

Keith Roberts.
Machines and Men.
1973
