About this listen

The passionate Andre-Louis Moreau makes an unexpected entrance into the French Revolution when he vows to avenge his best friend's death. His target: Monsieur de La Tour d'Azyr, the aristocratic villain who killed his friend. Andre-Louis rallies the underclass to join him in his mission against the supreme power of the nobility. Soon the rebel leader must go underground, disguising himself as "Scaramouche" in a traveling group of actors. In the midst of his swashbuckling adventures and his country's revolution, he discovers the secret of his own identity.

This is a lovely book. All the characters are richly drawn and the hero is someone that we want to spend time with.

Cannot recommend more highly.

A classic. Should be required reading.

It is a great adventure novel and it has great moments and great witty phrases. Good pace and tension and even a plot twist. The reader does his best though it sounds a bit silly sometimes. Overall is good and entertaining though the characters behave more than victorian englishmen than 18th century french. Still good fun.

Fun, sometimes brilliant, sometimes chiche..
