Title: Pistols for Two by Georgette Heyer ISBN: 0-451-13248-3 Publisher: New American Library Pub. Date: November, 1984 Format: Paperback Volumes: 1 List Price(USD): $2.50 |
Average Customer Rating: 4.8 (5 reviews)
Rating: 5
Summary: Lots of variety
Comment: This is a collection of short stories. Each has the trademark Heyer humor. I often re-read this book when I don't have a lot of time. I can read one or two stories really quickly. Like all her books, this one is great. I think this would be a good introduction to her books. Try this and if you like it, try a longer novel next.
Rating: 4
Summary: Always Fun
Comment: Georgette Heyer is probably one of the most unappreciated humorous writers of romances. Georgette Heyer may not be as good as Jane Austen, but she has the same tongue-in-cheek wit and ironical gaze.
Pistols for Two, a collection of short stories, is not as funny as Heyer's novels. The stories are very short and lack the space necessary for the unraveling of Heyer's wit. They are, however, quinessential Heyer plots. (In fact, you can pretty much learn all of Heyer's romance plots from reading Pistols for Two.) Consequently, Pistols for Two is a fun, relaxing read. I regret that Heyer didn't (to my knowledge) write more short stories.
Recommendation: See if you can find it used in paperback before settling for the hardcover version. It's a thin book and shouldn't cost too much.
Rating: 5
Summary: I only wish they were longer...
Comment: This book is a wonderful collection of short regency titles that will surely touch your heart and have you re-reading them again and again. From calf-love to mature love, you are sure to enjoy the eclectic collection written in the typical Heyer-style and full of humor, sensitivity and a wonderful insight into interpersonal human relationships.
Don't miss this book.
