Praise for Masqueraders

A writer of great wit and style - I've read her books to ragged shreds

Kate Fenton, Daily Telegraph

Every girl, whatever her age, needs her own complete set of Heyer titles. More than romantic they are witty, elegant, stylish and the best comedies of manners since Jane Austen. Required reading for everyone

Diane Pearson

Georgette Heyer is unbeatable

India Knight

My favourite historical novelist - stylish, romantic, sharp, and witty. Her sense of period is superb, her heroines are enterprising, and her heroes dashing. I owe her many happy hours

Margaret Drabble

Sparkling

Independent

Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic. Georgette Heyer achieves what the rest of us only aspire to
