Summary: The way a sequel SHOULD be written. . . .
Review: Miss Heyer is as remarkable as always. Her mastery of the periods and manners of earlier England is a treasure. Moreover, it is one that I can revisit and with which I can enrich myself over and over again. Dominic is a perfect example of what one would expect Justin's and Leonie's son to be. And Mary? She is the ONLY woman who could possibly be right for him. More wonderful still, just as one has finished the book and begins to speculate as to what a daughter of the two originals would be like, one discovers An Infamous Army! I read with interest that others had immediately discerned the Avon relationships (had you all read many other Heyers in between?), however, no one mentioned that Worth and the Taverners (from Regency Buck) reappear in Brussels with Lady Bab. Kind of fun, eh?

Summary: One of Ms. Heyer's earliest efforts, and not her best
Review: On the Georgette Heyer reading list on the Internet, DEVIL'S CUB is consistently cited as one of the favourites by listmembers -- but it is one of my LEAST cherished Heyer books. The hero, the Marquis of Vidal, is not so much a rakehell as a spoiled brat who kills duelling opponents in fits of temper and attempts to rape the heroine (who manages to protect her own virtue by shooting him, thus winning his admiration and love!) Many Heyer fans seem to find such plot lines irresistibly romantic; for myself, I find this book and its hero rather repugnant. If you enjoyed THESE OLD SHADES, the "prequel" to this books, you'll love this one too -- but I find those Alastairs to be the least appealing among all of Ms. Heyer's characters.

Summary: excellent
Review: one of my alltime favorites.I just reread this after many years and still love it. I compare heyers work to that of Jane Austen. regarding the trilogy concept- the writer from Australia is the only one who had it right.the books about the Alastair family are Thhese Old Shades, Devils Cub and An Infamous Army.

Summary: Not a trilogy
Review: Sorry, but there is no trilogy. Devil's Cub is indeed the sequel to These Old Shades, but The Black Moth is a totally separate story. The character's name in The Black Moth is the Duke of Andover and the character's name in These Old Shades is the Duke of Avon.

Summary: crisp, pure regency, which book preceded this? Can't recall
Review: The devil's cub had a father who was equally a rake. i'm looking for the book about the father. Cut is perfect Regency, characters and dialogue as always perfect. If you like this period in hisotry, read everything Georgette wrote.

Summary: Amazing!!!
Review: The first Georgette Heyer book I've read was....Arrabella and April Lady. I didnt like them much to be frank. The romance wasn't that...romantic....Im more of a X-rated book reader XD But after reading Devil's Cub,expecting to be bored and dissapointed,I was amazed at how good it was. There was no sex.....and yet it was such an interesting book. It touched me...made me laugh....and made me cry sooo much!!! This has been the best book I've ever read. I also read all of Jane Austens book,I heard Georgette Heyers was like Miss Austen...but Heyers is so much more romantic!!!!

Summary: Rake Restoration at Its Best
Review: The prequel to this novel, These Old Shades, is my all time favorite novel, the joining of the worldly yet innocent Leonie with her beloved Satanas, Duke of Avon. Vidal, the Devil's Cub, is the expected product of this union, with all his mother's charm and passion combined with his father's wickedness. Naturally, his natural mate is not another tempestuous woman, but the highly intelligent, pragmatic Mary, the perfect foil for his impulsive personality. Heyer's subtle humor is at its best in this novel, her depiction of England and France historically accurate. And of course, its a joy to revisit Leonie, her Monseignor, Rupert, and others from These Old Shades. Now, if only they would reissue These Old Shades...

Summary: Imagine this novel as a romantic comedy on screen!
Review: This book was my first encounter with the Regency novel, and I've been hooked ever since. The way the author presents her characters is fascinating, the way they talk is irresistable! For me, imagining to live a life bound by so many rules of etiquette, was overwhelming. Reading the book felt to me like watching this romantic comedy on the big screen tv in my head. (I still haven't filled in the stars in the movie, ....uum, Leonardo & Kate? Grace and Cary? Katherine Hepburn! Meg Ryan! Antonia Banderas, DENZEL WASHINGTON! Why not?) There are not a lot of regency novels that I have read after this first one that can equal Mrs. Heyer's delightfull potrayal of life in this era. ARE THIS PEOPLE REAL??? Did there ever excist such an era? I knew this book followed "These Old Shades", which I couldn't get my hands on, but now I've learned that these two books are 2nd and 3rd of a trilogy, so now I'll be looking for "The Black moth" too! (Long live the Internet!)

Summary: Love and Honor at it's Best
Review: This is a sequel to These Old Shades, being about the son of the Duke of Avon and Leonie. Dominic's wild behavior and bad temper earn him the nickname Devil's Cub. When he crosses pathes with a sweet, practical miss, he has met his match! A mad romp starting in London, going through Paris and ending in the French countryside, this is a must read for Heyer fans.
