What if the historical Lady Jane Grey, England's “Nine Day Queen,” had been a fiery troublemaker? What if all the power plays and factional scheming of House of the Dragon had a bawdy, comedic edge to it? What if Tudor Britain were plagued by anthropomorphic shapeshifters? What if Bridgerton had a magical realist twist? The answer to all these questions is My Lady Jane , which blends together what should be a hodgepodge of mismatched elements into a wildly entertaining historical romance/fantasy/comedy/action chimera.
