Requirements: ePub Reader, Mobi Reader, 5.1 MB
Overview: Rafael Sabatini (1875 - 1950) was an Italian/British writer of novels of romance and adventure. At a young age, Rafael was exposed to many languages. By the time he was seventeen, he was the master of five languages. He quickly added a sixth language - English - to his linguistic collection. After a brief stint in the business world, Sabatini went to work as a writer. He wrote short stories in the 1890s, and his first novel came out in 1902. Sabatini was a prolific writer; he produced a new book approximately every year. He consciously chose to write in his adopted language, because, he said, "all the best stories are written in English. " In all, he produced thirty one novels, eight short story collections, six nonfiction books, numerous uncollected short stories, and a play. He is perhaps best loved for Scaramouche and The Sea Hawk, all of which have been adapted into hugely-successful films.
Genre: General Fiction/Classics

Bardelys the Magnificent (1906): As Languedoc enters her year of rebellion, the Sieur Marcel de St. Pol has other things on his mind. For amid the glorious battles and brutal insurrections, Marcel a.k.a. the Marquis of Bardleys, has his heart set on a fair lady. Yet will she succumb to the Marquis' 'strange wooing'?

The Trampling of the Lilies (1906): As France embarked upon her bloody revolution in 1789, La Boulaye was a man with no personal grievance against the aristocracy - until his employer, the Marquis de Fresnoy de Bellecour, ruthlessly beat and dismissed him for falling in love with Suzanne, his beautiful daughter. Faced with no job and an uncertain destiny, La Boulaye devoted himself to the cause of the Revolution. Four years later, at the height of the aristocratic executions, Beulaye comes face to face with the Marquis once more - yet now it is he who holds the power and his former master who must beg for mercy.

Mistress Wilding (aka Anthony Wilding) (1910): The scene is Monmouth's Rebellion, set in the West Country in seventeenth century England. As the ill-fated and weak 'King Monmouth' attempts to rally his insubordinate troops, Anthony Wilding embarks upon his own quest - to woo his unwilling bride. The political and personal stories are magically interwoven in this exciting historical romance, and it is Wilding who ultimately emerges the wiser of the two men.

The Lion's Skin (1911): Justine Caryle is the perfect English gentleman - honourable, brave, loyal, intelligent, except for the fact that he is the illegitimate son of the Earl of Ostermore and the Earl's true heir is determined to destroy his reputation. Enemies for years, Caryll and Lord Ostermore come face to face once more and become locked in a battle of revenge, jealousy and greed.

The Strolling Saint (1913): Agostino d'Anguissola is a formidable character - as tyrant of Modolfo and Lord of Carmina, he is not a man to be ignored. And for the state of Piacenza, he is a terrifying and mighty master of whom his subjects live in fear and awe. The Strolling Saint chronicles d'Anguissola's very personal testimony and his often harrowing confessions.

Scaramouche (1921): When a young cleric is wrongfully killed, his friend, Andre Louis, vows to avenge his death. Louis' mission takes him to the very heart of the French Revolution where he finds the only way to survive is to assume a new identity. And so is born Scaramouche - a brave and remarkable hero of the finest order and a classic and much-loved tale of the greatest swashbuckling tradition.
