"God's truth! Would you make common thieves of us?" he said angrily. "Their weapons and harness are ours by right of war, but I'll hunt the man who steals their money out of my company."

So the purse was restored. When it was safe in the knight's pouch again Hugh saluted him, begging his pardon that it should have been touched.

"But how are you named, sir?" he added.

"Sir Pierre de la Roche is my name," replied the knight sadly, and in French.

"Then, Sir Pierre de la Roche," said Hugh, "here you and your people must bide until some come to set you free, which, as this place is lonely and little crossed in winter, may be to-day or may be to-morrow.

Two stars. This is what might happen if Ivanhoe and "The Masque of the Red Death" had a love child--except that Haggard is not the equal of either Scott or Poe. I have read several novels by Haggard by this time (I can think of eight offhand, including She), always with the feeling that the next one

If you love H. Rider Haggard the black plague and romance then you are sure to love this novel.

The edition I have of this book I would NOT recommend as it has multiple errors in print, no page numbers, and missing chapter numbers. The edition is from Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. Avoid it at all costs.

Не будь на свете женщин, чем тогда могли заниматься мужчины? Или… о чём тогда писать Райдеру Хаггарду? На страницах очередного произведения описывались приключения, связанные с необходимостью разрубить узел злосчастного брака. Некогда произошло неприятное — без приличествующих ухаживаний и подвигов

Great read.

An adventure/ romance that follows the struggles of a sturdy 14th century member of the minor gentry to win his love and fulfill a mission set by his king. It opens in February, 1346 in England with two lovers since childhood, cousins whose well to do families are feuding, attempt to flee together t

For his 37th work of fiction, H. Rider Haggard, the so-called "father of the lost-race novel" and an expert at writing historical adventure tales as well, decided to go back to the Dark Ages. "Red Eve," which Haggard wrote in a six-month period from 1908-1909, was ultimately published in 1911, and t

H. Rider Haggard has got to be one of the best story-tellers of all time! All previous of his books I've read took place in Africa. _Red Eve_ provided a decided change of scenery, taking the reader to (not so) "Merry" Old England, Italy and France of the 14th century. I am not particularly excited a
