A dashing Regency romance from the legendary Georgette Heyer, founder of the genre. Captain John Staple's exploits against Napoleon's armies in the Iberian Peninsula have earned him the nickname 'Crazy Jack' amongst his comrades in the Dragoon Guards - but once the Battle of Waterloo brings the curtain down once and for all on the Napoleonic Wars, the boisterous, adventure-loving captain finds life in peacetime intolerably dull.

Der Unvergleichliche
Sir Waldo, der Unvergleichliche, bringt durch eine Erbschaft Unruhe in die Familie, seinen geerbten Besitz und die gesamte Nachbarschaft. Und das äußerst vergnüglich für die Zuhörer (nicht immer auch für seine Mitmenschen).
Heyer ist meine Lieblingsautorin und auch dieses Buch ist eine besondere Freude.
Beim Anhören der Hörprobe war ich mir nicht sicher, ob ich diese Stimme ein ganzes Hörbuch am Stück ertragen könnte - aber es geht! Gut sogar! Viel besser als gedacht! James Lailey schafft es, die Personen unterscheidbar zu sprechen und die Launen, Stimmungen und Gefühle mit rüberzubringen.
