�@ George Macdonald Fraser Released 'The Reavers' Oct 2007 Another fantastic Romp in the style of 'The Pyrates' Stereo Technicolor with added Flynn! Synopsis George wrote this one for the hell it! Show off! George knows the country and setting well, 'the borders' as written in CANDLEMASS ROAD, the tongue in cheek pass at current politics are strong seemingly out of place but bang on! His knowledge of history and the era of Hollywood swashbuckling that inspired him shine through. This pure is the true Fraser as we've never read before,flowing and brimming with his wit and humour, filled with everything that we know inspired him; history, story telling, Flynn-Hollywood, bosom quivering humour and the land of his birth, Carlisle and the borders. God Bless you George! �@ |
