Reviews
"Exciting, dangerous, fascinating." -- The Boston Globe "[Dunnett's] hero. . .is as polished and perceptive as Lord Peter Wimsey and as resourceful as James Bond." -- The New York Times Book Review "Vivid, engaging, densely plotted. . . . Dunnett is a master of suspense and misdirection." -- The New York Times "A masterpiece of historical fiction." -- The Washington Post "[Lymond] is arguably the perfect romantic hero." -- The Guardian "Dorothy Dunnett is one of the greatest talespinners since Dumas . . . breathlessly exciting." --Cleveland Plain Dealer "Dunnett is a name to conjure with. Her work exemplifies the best the genre can offer." --Christian Science Monitor "Ingenious and exceptional . . . its effect brilliant, its pace swift and colorful and its multi-linear plot spirited and absorbing." --Boston Herald "Dunnett evokes the sixteenth century with an amazing richness of allusion and scholarship, while keeping a firm control on an intricately twisting narrative. She has another more unusual quality . . . an ability to check her imagination with irony, to mix high romance with wit." --Sunday Times (London) "A very stylish blend of high romance and high camp. Her hero, the enigmatic Lymond, [is] Byron crossed with Lawrence of Arabia. . . . He moves in an aura of intrigue, hidden menace and sheer physical daring." --Times Literary Supplement (London) "With shrewd psychological insight and a rare gift of narrative and descriptive power, Dorothy Dunnett reveals the color, wit, lushness . . . and turbulent intensity of one of Europe's greatest eras." --Raleigh News and Observer
