About this product

Product Information

"Reading Georgette Heyer is the next best thing to reading Jane Austen."--Publishers Weekly Rank, wealth, and elegance are no match for a young lady who writes novels... Sylvester, Duke of Salford, has exacting requirements for a bride. Then he meets Phoebe Marlow, a young lady with literary aspirations, and suddenly life becomes very complicated. She meets none of his criteria, and even worse, she has written a novel that is sweeping through the ton and causing all kinds of gossip... and he's the main character! What Readers Say: "A truly brilliant Heyer with an adorable and very real heroine and a hero who is very human!" "One of Heyer's most unsung achievements, a classic Pride and Prejudice story. Hilarity and adventure throughout." "The hero may be my all-time favorite. He is so drily funny it takes your breath away. What a wonderful love story." "Hilariously funny, romantic, even touching in a subtle way." Georgette Heyer wrote over fifty novels, including Regency romances, mysteries, and historical fiction. She was known as the Queen of Regency romance, and was legendary for her research, historical accuracy, and her extraordinary plots and characterizations.

"It's easy to see why Heyer is still considered a master of the genre even today... " -- Debbie's Book Bag, "Sparkling wit and an entertaining banter between hero and heroine like Austen... " -- A Work in Progress, "SYLVESTER, OR THE WICKED UNCLE is a Regency romp at its best. Ms. Heyer creates characters that are realistic, lively, and humorous and the secondary characters are just as entertaining. " -- Book Lover and Procrastinator, "It's easy to see why Heyer is still considered a master of the genre even today... " - Debbie's Book Bag, "A colorful array of her usual characters... if you are a Georgette Heyer fan and haven't read this book yet, you will be well advised to do so now." -- Jane Austen's World, "It oozes with words classically denoting that time period and flashbacks of Austen careens in the background.

This one has everything!
Excellent plot twists and turns, great characters, lots of humor, and excellent romance. One of my top 3 favorites. No collection is complete without SYLVESTER!

Great book
Great book. I didn't read it for many years because the subtitle "the wicked uncle" turned me off, but obviously the uncle is NOT wicked at all, just the opposite in fact, and his role as an uncle has very little to do with the overall story. I enjoyed the book immensely.
