The death of their eccentric father left them well provided for but consigned to the guardianship of a man they have never met, Julian St. John Audley, Lord Worth. When repeated requests for an introduction to him go unanswered, they set off to London to force a meeting. En route, they spend the night in the village of Grantham, where they make the acquaintance of their Uncle Bernard. Judith and Perry, knowing that their father had disowned his brother many years ago are reluctant to acknowledge the relationship, but Bernard proves to be polite and charming. They also run afoul of an arrogant aristocrat when Perry mishandles a borrowed gig on the road and causes a near-accident. On reaching London, Judith and Perry are amazed and horrified to discover that the insufferable nobleman who made their lives a misery in Grantham is none other than Lord Worth himself. The plot is sufficiently clever and complicated to keep the listener guessing, but the characters are not as appealing as those in some of Heyer's other Regencies. Worth never really becomes human; he is annoyingly arrogant and omniscient, keeping his feelings, as well as a couple of vital facts, hidden from the heroine and the listener alike. Judith, not allowed to overcome the conventions of her romance heroine role, never becomes a decisive character. June Barrie handles the various voices and accents well but unremarkably. A secondary purchase in libraries where Heyer's works (e.g., Cotillion) are popular and the budget allows. Barbara Rhodes, Northeast Texas Lib. Syst.,

GarlandCopyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc. Review "This is a perfect read for a cold and rainy day--a romance with a little mystery thrown in... I thoroughly enjoyed this and can't wait to read more of Heyer's works." - Library Queue "[A]s always, somehow Heyer's heroine manages to time and again smash those pre-conceived notions and blaze a unique trail of her own. This is, by far, my favorite part of her books. Judith's character is one of the best representations of this Heyer trait." - A Book Blogger's Diary "I love Worth and Judith. I love the rich-layers of Regency Buck..." - Becky's Book Blog "Regency Buck is certainly worth adding to your Heyer library." - Curled Up With a Good Book " I love it for its amazingly accurate historical detail and for its hero and heroine. I love Worth and Judith both." - DearAuthor.com From the Publisher 9 1.5-hour cassettes Customer Reviews Most helpful customer reviews 4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Delicious insignt into the Regency Period By Patricia I am interested in the Regency period but had never read a novel placed in that period so when I happened to read an interview where someone said that the Regency novels of Georgette Heyer were wonderful relaxation, that stuck in my mind and I decided to try this one (written in 1935, BTW). Romance novels are not usually my thing and at first I thought I would lose interest but there was no danger of that. The plot moves quickly and I became engrossed with the characters, particularly our heroine Judith Taverner and her encounters with Lord Worth, a man who has unexpectedly been appointed the guardian for her and her brother. He completely infuriates her. You have to suspend belief at some of the turns in the plot but it is so delicious you don't mind. I enjoyed the appearance of well-known historical figures like the Regent (later George IV), his brothers, and Beau Brummel, etc. If you like a period romance novel, this is a good one. I suspect that I will read other novels by Heyer when I am looking for a relaxing - yet compelling - read. 2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. excellent! By Nena I enjoyed reading it and listening to the audio book. There is a mystery to be solved, romance and adventure. There are parts of the book where the author describes in great detail a cock fight, the Prince Regent,s famous pavilion, etc. Initially, I felt these lengthy descriptions were a bit too much until I decided to pay careful attention. I must say that it became very interesting and I'm glad I learned so much about the custumes of that time in history. Once again Georgette Heyer lived up to my expectations. I recommend to read every line carefully and savor it. I liked the characters and I became invested in their lives. People of all ages could enjoy it; however, I consider it would be better for an older audience. 3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. in-depth knowledge of the era... By LCullen Only qualms I had with this very detailed and amazing research of the Regency era was it was so overwhelming detailed that it overshadowed the characters and storyline! It was clearly obvious who the villain was and there was only glimpses of love between the hero/heroine it seemed to wrap up fast! Yet at the same time found myself skimming pages at a time to hurry up the progress in the novel! LOVE GEORGETTE HEYER!!!!! Still the reigning queen of this era, but sadly this novel palled in comparison to her novels like Venetia, These Old Shades and Faro's Daughter!!!!!!! ❤️ See all 173 customer reviews...
