| Summary | "A Noble Queen: A Romance of Indian History (Volume 2 of 3)" by Meadows Taylor is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The narrative unfolds in a richly detailed setting during a time marked by political intrigue and personal valor, focusing on the characters navigating the complex socio-political landscape of Indian history. Central to the story is Abbas Khan, a nobleman who faces challenges and adventures while serving the Queen-Regent, illustrating themes of honor, loyalty, and the struggles of love against the backdrop of impending war. The opening of the volume captures the aftermath of a council meeting, filled with vibrant descriptions of the court and the proceedings within the palace. The mood shifts between jubilant celebrations of Abbas Khan’s recent victories and the tension of political maneuvering as the Queen prepares for war. Abbas Khan is shown returning home to affectionate greetings and his mother’s pride, highlighting the personal stakes intertwined with his public actions. Additionally, the narrative introduces the priest, Francis d'Almeida, who, despite cultural tensions, remains focused on his mission of aiding the young Queen, Taj-ool-Nissa, whose health becomes a central concern. The opening sets the stage for the unfolding drama of loyalty, intrigue, and romance, inviting the reader into a world where personal destinies are shaped by the larger forces of history.
