Praise for Regency Buck: "Clever!"? Library Journal "Georgette Heyer is unbeatable."?

A good introduction to Heyer's period stories..." ? The Booklist "Reading Georgette Heyer is the next best thing to reading Jane Austen."? Publishers Weekly "A writer of great wit and style... I've read her books to ragged shreds"? Katie Fenton, Daily Telegraph "Wonderful characters, elegant, witty writing, perfect period detail, and rapturously romantic.

 After publishing eighteen books, ten of them historical, Georgette Heyer finally turned to the period that she would make her own: the Regency, in a book titled, appropriately enough, Regency Buck. And oh, it’s awful. Well, maybe not awful. Let us just say not very good. ... The failed romance and the borrowings from Pride and Prejudice are, alas, not the only problems with this novel, which suffers from two other problems: one, it is frequently dull, partly because two, it contains far, far, far, far far too much dropping of historical facts.
