I have had a crush on the swash-buckeling original Zorro, sorry Antonio, since my early teens. Call me a Romantic...and I will answer. What else is better than a young, cocky, heart-of-a-lion boy chasing a dream of being the best, a member of the elite in the name of good? As young adults, we all like to believe these things are true, somewhere in time.

As young girls we would all like to believe that we can find these qualities in someone with whom we can give our love too. Yeah chicas, talking bout' a hero here. Can I get a witness?

The book has sword fighting that is made splendid by the imagination and daring acts of courage. Deception and conspiracy of the Royal kind is the plot, and four daring rebels who fight for their country and their allegiance is what makes this book have a lasting effect. Adventure of the nth kind is waiting between this book cover...challenge yourself to a read your English teacher would be shocked to death to find out you picked up on your own. Then dance on her grave chanting, "and I liked it too!"
