Reseña del libro "Lord Tony's Wife: An Adventure of the Scarlet Pimpernel"

Lord Tony's Wife, by Baroness Orczy is a sequel book to the classic adventure tale, The Scarlet Pimpernel. Has three sections -- Prologue: Nantes, 1789; Book I: Bath, 1793; and Book II: Nantes, December, 1793. The prologue establishes the characters of Pierre Adet, M. le duc de Kernogan, and his daughter Yvonne de Kernogan. Book I is a lot of fun. We get Sir Percy / the Scarlet Pimpernel in both iterations and we have Marguerite and various members of the League. Book II is rather dreary. Mostly, it consists of descriptions of the various cruelties and cruel personalities of The Terror as practiced in Nantes.
