Reseñas de la Crítica

"One of my perennial comfort authors. Heyer's books are as incisively witty and quietly subversive as any of Jane Austen's." (Joanne Harris)

"Fabulously witty." (Stephen Fry)

"Once you step into her world, you won't look back." (Katie Fforde)

Masterful interpretation

The first georgette heyer book I ever read was Regency Buck when I was a teen. I relished this story once again. The narrator was wonderful. The story is so charming. Bravo. Highly recommend.

Thoroughly enjoyable!

Georgette Heyer was always a favourite but I must say , I really and truly enjoyed the experience of having it read out to me. Penguin and the narrator have done a great job

Very lovely narration

There were a pronounced name or two that were different than in other Heyer novel productions but overall delightful.

One of her best

This has all the hallmarks of a satisfying historical romance. The characters are so well developed. There is misdirection and believable misunderstandings , humorous supporting characters and evil villains. But most of all the main male character is all I could wish for as the protagonist finally realizes

One of the best of Ms Heyer

I loved the narration of this novel. What a great job she did for all characters. This is one of the best.

Entertaining read!

Several times I forgot the narrator was only one person. She did an excellent job voicing different people! As for the story, it was yet another entertaining read from Heyer. Judith can be annoying at times because of her temper, but oh well.

An entertaining blend of romance and mystery

Regency Buck is a unique blend of Georgette Heyer’s classic Regency Romance Novels & her lesser known Mystery Novels. The story begins with her usual strong willed Beauty vs arrogant aristocratic Rake; but then adds both a gentleman of good morals and a dangerous murder attempt.
The narrator is a gifted voice actress, whos performance of both Lords & Ladies, as well as the “commoners” is excellent!
All in All, one of the best of the Heyer audiobooks!

Loved the story! Very original story line with amazing twists and turns.

Nothing at all! Loved everything about this book and love Georgette Heyer!! What a gem!

Pride and Prejudice fan fic

This is a play on P&P- including direct quotes from the novel. It’s a remix for sure, but go in knowing that and it will annoy you less. I wonder if GH thought her audience hadn’t read Austen or if we are supposed to be in on the ‘homage’.

Very Entertaining!

I don't know how Georgette Heyer never made it onto my radar before, so this was my first introduction. How utterly delightful! I couldn't stop listening and finished in a couple of days. The narration was very good overall. However, there were some questionable pronunciation choices. Occasionally I had difficulty determining which character was speaking, but with so many, it certainly can't be easy to perform. Now, onto my next Georgette Heyer listen...
