The unforgettable tale of the Scarlet Pimpernel wrote by this magnificent author. Many other authors tried to wrote the same story by just adding some more romantic figures into the plot, without any success as the original story.

This was a freebie download on my Kindle. I know I'm kinda slow at getting to this book that probably everybody has already read. I loved it! Could hardly wait to get back to it when I had to stop reading. My daughter told me that the movie is one of her best friends favorites ever. Now I've got to see it too. Loved it!

One of my favorites. It's too bad that the story is so famous that you already know who the Scarlet Pimpernel is before reading it, because half the story is based on the reader not knowing.

I really enjoyed this book. It was fast paced and fun, an easy read for a "classic". The Scarlet Pimpernel is a dashing hero, that really has a penchant for disguises! Lots of fun!
