The Lion's Skin (Dodo Press) (2007) - Plot & Excerpts

Opening lines:Mr. Caryll, lately from Rome, stood by the window, looking out over the rainswept, steaming quays to Notre Dame on the island yonder. Overhead rolled and crackled the artillery of an April thunderstorm, and Mr. Caryll, looking out upon Paris in her shroud of rain, under her pall of thundercloud, felt himself at harmony with Nature. Over his heart, too, the gloom of storm was lowering, just as in his heart it was still little more than April time.Free download available at Project Gutenberg.4* Scaramouche4* The Sea-Hawk3* The Sword of Islam3* The Red Mask2* The Curate and the Actress4* Love-at-Arms4* Casanova's Alibi and Other Stories3* The Lion's SkinTBR Captain BloodTBR Captain Blood ReturnsTBR The Fortunes of Captain Blood

Sabatini's heroes are so quick-witted and hilariously sarcastic. He's at ease in virtually every situation but his love life. And it NEVER gets old. The historical accuracy of a time period in which kings are in exile, rebellions are beginning, and loyalties are being questioned--how easily a tale of vengeance can unravel. But it's more complicated than that. It's how Sabatini likes it. And it's how I like it. This man is one of the most entertaining historical authors in the history of the genre. I love him to death. And I can't wait to read more.
