The Buccaneers
I read this book and also saw the TV movie a few years ago. I enjoyed the book very much. Very well written and I liked the ending as I couldn't see Annabelle with the stiff Duke.

The Buccaneers -- completed by Marion Mainwarning 1993

The Buccaneers,

This review is from: Fast and Loose and The Buccaneers (Paperback)
I read this book and also saw the TV movie a few years ago. I enjoyed the book very much. Very well written and I liked the ending as I couldn't see Annabelle with the stiff Duke. She belonged with Guy and they made a very adorable couple. In the movie , they changed some aspects of the book but it was still great. I recommend this book very much and the author who took over the ending due to the death of Edith Wharton did a commendable job. Well done.

It's a shame that Marion Mainwaring took such liberties with Edith Whartons style The closing of her stories was always in another direction. And usually not a happy one.Edith had she lived, I believe would have had the Brief Love Affair between Guy and Annibel end at Laura Testvalleys family home with a sad but brief good-bye; Annibel to Amrerica and Guy to where ever. Laura succeeds in achieving a safe harbour for her well deserved ending. And the Duke is still the Duke and that's bad enough. This ending was unfitting a good storyteller as Edith Wharton was. |
