Resumen del Editor

Brought to you by Penguin.

A dashing Regency romance from the legendary Georgette Heyer, founder of the genre.

Captain John Staple's exploits against Napoleon's armies in the Iberian Peninsula have earned him the nickname 'Crazy Jack' amongst his comrades in the Dragoon Guards - but once the Battle of Waterloo brings the curtain down once and for all on the Napoleonic Wars, the boisterous, adventure-loving captain finds life in peacetime intolerably dull.

When the captain finds himself lost in the Pennines, he takes refuge at an unmanned toll-house. It's there that he encounters a woman of extraordinary qualities - and suddenly, his soldiering days pale away next to the adventure, and the romance of a lifetime....

Heyer at her best!

And brought to life beautifully by Callum Hughes. Loved it! Will search out more books narrated by him.

One of my favorite Heyer

I loved the story….funny, witty, with humor and a mystery to solve. I liked the narrator, lovely work. The most beautiful way to spend time. Thank you !

1 of my favourite Heyer's but narration not great

This is one of those great Georgette Heyers - funny, interesting AND a murder mystery.

Unfortunately it felt like the narrator wasn't very familiar with this work - displayed a lack of knowledge about the characters, rarely got the emphasis right in sentences so that if you're not familiar with the book I don't think you'd be able to fully appreciate the plot, and he even mispronounced a few things along the way.

Overall, the narration really spoilt it for me (not that this was a bad narrator, but to do a book like this justice you need to have read it more than once - you need to be familiar with it and make notes about where to put emphasis etc).

Unfortunately none of these flaws were apparent in the sample, but I'll take note of this narrator for future reference and consider yourself warned if you're thinking about purchasing this version. It's ok but when I find myself constantly correcting the narrator - well I know I'm not enjoying it
