In the style of Philippa Gregory's The Other Boleyn Girl, Natalie Andrew's As Alike As Two Suns follows the life of Maleen of Adlkofen. When young Maleen of Adlkofen is betrothed to a powerful but cruel prince in 1525, she and her cousin Adelaide arrange a daring swap that will give power to the willing Adelaide's family and free Maleen from a marriage she dreads. They trade places, a switch that goes unnoticed in the court of Kollstansze. But Adelaide rapidly becomes difficult to control, and her father begins to use Maleen as the political pawn she thought she no longer was. When Maleen marries the ambassador of the neighboring state of Willmars and Adelaide unexpectedly dies, she must help the uncle she loathes orchestrate another switch to protect her fragile new life. As Alike As Two Suns brings an obscure part of history to life, and raises questions about Maleen of Adlkofen's historical role--was she a pawn, or a player?
