    About this series

    El Dorado, by Baroness Orczy is a sequel book to the classic adventure tale, The Scarlet Pimpernel.

    As well as containing all the main characters from the first book, Eldorado introduces several new characters and features the Baron de Batz, who also turns up in Sir Percy Leads the Band and The Way of the Scarlet Pimpernel (Baron Jean de Batz is a genuine historical figure).

    It is 1794 and Paris, "despite the horrors that had stained her walls - has remained a city of pleasure, and the knife of the guillotine did scarce descend more often than did the drop-scenes on the stage." The plot begins when Sir Percy reluctantly agrees to take Armand St. Just with him to France as part of a plan to rescue the young Dauphin.

      The Greatest French Crime Writer You’ve Never Heard Of

      Mar 9, 2017

      The crime and espionage author Frédéric Dard is without doubt the most prolific and widely read Francophone writer with whom hardly anybody in the English speaking world, even serious crime genre aficionados, is acquainted. In the second half of the 20th century—he began writing seriously after the end of WWII and continued until his death in 2000—Dard produced over 300 novels. But only a tiny number have ever been translated into English and then invariably by hard-to-track-down small specialist presses. However now, thanks to Pushkin Vertigo, Dard is being translated and made widely availab

    • 4/5
      Great book but the ending would’ve benefited from slightly more elaboration after a highly elaborate tail.
    • 3/5
      I’ve really enjoyed going through The Scarlet Pimpernel series and Karen Savage is a great narrator but this audio skips over parts. LibriVox has the same copy without the skips as far as I can tell.
