Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Sparkling" Independent "Georgette Heyer is unbeatable" -- India Knight "My favourite historical novelist - stylish, romantic, sharp, and witty. Her sense of period is superb, her heroines are enterprising, and her heroes dashing. I owe her many happy hours." -- Margaret Drabble "Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic. Georgette Heyer achieves what the rest of us only aspire to." -- Katie Fforde "A writer of great wit and style... I've read her books to ragged shreds." -- Kate Fenton Daily Telegraph
