"You are not a coward, Monsieur," said the dark lady. "I have been accounted many unsavory things, Madame, but my bitterest enemies never dubbed me that." "Why, then, did you run away?" "Why? Ma foi! because in the excessive humility of my soul I recognized myself unfit to die." It was a day that set events in motion that shaped history for centuries to come. (Jacketless library hardcover.)

4.0 out of 5 stars
romantic (non-explicit) swashbuckler,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Lovers of Yvonne (Paperback)
What a pleasure to read a book written in 1902, and find a fast moving, pulse pounding adventure story written for adults. If your taste runs to adventurous tales of old like 'The Scarlet Pimpernel' or the entertaining historical romances of Georgette Heyer you will be pleased by the pen of Rafael Sabintini. Mr. Sabintini wrote dozens of historical novels including 'Captain Blood' and 'The Sea Hawk', so this is just the first offering of many from a master storyteller.
