All in all, this "sheer knight-errantry" is a marvelous entertainment."Kirkus Reviews

With swordfights and romance, adventure and treachery set against the backdrop of the French Revolution,
this is the book that made Sabatini famous. Andr-Louis Moreau has good prospects as a young lawyer,
but an unfair duel with the ruthlessly cruel Count de La Tour d'Azyr leaves Andr-Louis's best friend dead
and Andr-Louis himself a fugitive from the King's justice. While incognito, he becomes both a wildly popular
actor and a firebrand of the Revolution. His vow to avenge his friend's murder leads him deeper into the political
intrigues that surround the Revolution, and to a position of power. But there are secrets to be revealed that will
stun all of Paris.

One of the best historical romances of all time, Scaramouche was a bestseller upon its original publication
in the U.S. in 1921.

Earphones Awards recipient Robert Whitfield was born in England and worked for the BBC for ten years as a radio news announcer and also worked as a narrator for the Royal National Institute for the Blind in London. In addition to narrating for Blackstone Audiobooks, he involves himself in numerous stage-acting projects in the United States and Europe.

Have you always loved reading but sometimes find it hard to find the time? Theres nothing quite like curling up with a good book but many of us cannot do that as much as we would llike. We sacrifice this special time because we have so many other things to do each day. It is a common problem and it is the reason why people on average are not reading as much as they once did. Audio books bring the story to life just as the storytellers of the past did. They allow you to experience the book in a whole new way; in the way the writer felt and heard it in their head. You can feel the emotion when you allow audio books to let the story come to life.
