Oodles of context and an entertaining read for an avid royal watcher
As a fairly avid royal watcher, what I am left feeling after reading this book is that Harry’s campaign for misinformation is more “against information that portrays him in any negative light” and Meghan’s complaints about lack of protection are to do with “lack of protection of her image in the press “ and not threats to her physical safety per se.While Tom Bower has managed to bring many new anecdotes and insights, it appears that a lot of Meghan & Harry’s antics were reliably covered by the British press. The book clearly lays out Meghan as a social climber, which would not have been so terrible if not accompanied by the completely transactional nature of her personal and professional relationships. And her misunderstanding of the role of the monarchy. Meghan comes off as ambitious, calculating but also intelligent and straightforward in her ambitions - to profit off her Duchess title and global fame. And who could blame her! All their “charitable” causes are either a front to profit, or to gain positive press as humanitarians peddling the most recent social cause.Harry on the other hand seems to be a petulant and deeply disturbed Prince, whose image the Palace kept a tight rein on, but it’s now clearly unravelling. Events in the book show how he is the cause of the rift between Thomas Markle and his daughter. It’s also evident he has no identity outside of his personal trauma with his mother and now the royal family. He definitely married up.Tom Bower is fairly critical of Charles, Andrew and William anytime they are mentioned, which is sort of refreshing to read. What I also enjoyed was a look into the actual men and women in grey suits. The book calls out a lot of the key palace courtiers by name, along with their motivations, and seemingly a lot of them were treated horribly by Harry & Meghan and constantly put in untenable situations.I would recommend this book for both royal watchers and non royal watchers. The sheer delusion of a rich prince and princess, and what constitutes misinformation and (image) protection in their lives is both staggering and entertaining to read. Especially when they try to burn down their families because of it.

Revenge: Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors by Tom Bower
I bought this book for myself & it is one of the best books I have ever read about Meghan, Prince Harry & their interactions with the British Royal Family. I read a lot of books about the British Royal Family & have read many over the years.

Great Read
I thought this book was well written and researched. Considering the Sussexes did NOT sure the author over this book, I feel the facts are true. Sure gives a good account of Meghan and her agenda prior, during and after her brief stint in the Royal family. It's too bad she is the way she is as she could have brought a lot of good to the BRF but she is a selfish narcissist who wants things all her way or bye-bye family.

Excellent Read
This book is well written, easy to read with Tom's writing style. He's clearly not a fan of Meghan or Harry for that matter and he has good reason. They did hurt the Queen in the last couple of years of her life and Meghan in particular seems to despise Her Majesty for some reason.The book was good at putting all of it together and many things I didn't know, especially about the setting up of the 'charities' and all their 'ventures'. It's very odd that M and H don't read the room. I don't wish them any ill at all but I really wish they would stop trading on the Royal Family. The very family they don't want to be part of!Other than a few typos, Meghan's name spelt Megan once and a couple of sentences that didn't make sense, it's a great read and I couldn't put it down.
