Great fun, and I always feel that it's nostalgic, even though the world that it was set was yet to be swept away by the horror of the First World War. Wonderful book.

Seek out the Stewart Grainer movie which is a frame to frame copy of an earlier one with D Fairbankds Jnr. Rupert of Hentzau, the sequel, is also wonderful.
