Summary: Angelique ~ a master piece
Review: Back in the 70's I saw the Angelique Series on TV in Germany. I also have the first two stories of her, in hard cover. Translated in german. I am thrilled to find out that I now can get it in english. Seeing it onscreen though, you can imagine yourself in that time period of Angelique and King Louis 14th, the sun king. This is the altimate love story of the century. She faced problems, love, ups and down, as many women in our time would face. But she handled everything with such grace and sometimes quite humorous, that I just love her. Michelle Mercier played Angelique in the TV series and have to say that she suited the character very well. Yes indeed, a masterpiece.

Summary: Wonderful... One of the best books I've ever read
Review: I ran into this book one afternoon at my grandmother's place (she and my aunt kept talking about how great the series was and I never paid much attention to them). That day I was so bored that I decided to take a look at it. To my surprise I LOVED IT, I couldn't stop reading and even took it to work. It is wonderfully written, the Angelique character is very well constructed, the story is believable and the historical background of XVIII century France is magnificiently portrayed. I've just finished Angelique and the Sultan (Indomable Angelica, in Spanish), the fourth in the series and I'm dying to read the next ones but my granma lost them! I looked them up at AMAZON but they're out of print... still, I placed the order and i'm hoping they find them for me. Mr. Publisher: Please reprint them!

Summary: Unfinished Angélique
Review: I have just finished reading the first ANGÉLIQUE novel, and needless to say, I'm on a roll. I simply have to found out about the faith of that wonderful and strong character nicknamed Marquise of Angels.I understand that the last three books of the series have never been translated into english, which, to me, is kind of preposterous, since english readers will never know what happens to Anne Golon's mesmerizing character. Thank God, I don't have this problem, though, for I'm French-Canadian and can easily purchase all the books (which I intend to do as I go along with the series), but to my fellow american readers, this unfinished business of translation is a big let down. So, all you publishers out there : wake up and smell the money ! -----------M. Boucher

Summary: A captivating series that women of the '90s can relate to.
Review: Having just finished my 4th reading of the 9 known translations of the Angelique Series I feel letdown that for me the series had ended. I understand other volumes are available in France, however have never been translated. What do we as avid fans and readers of this series need to do to insure the popularity (sales) will be as strong today as in the 60's and 70's. Angelique possesses all the strength of character and sensuality expected of today's woman. Set in Louis XIV france and the new world the tale of Angelique continues to intrigue and capture my attention since I first read the series in my early 20's. I'm now 55 and wishing for more of the same. READ THESE BOOKS AND DEMAND MORE OF THE SAME QUALITY. TODAY'S ROMANCES CANNOT COMPARE WITH ANGELIQUE.

Summary: It's one of the best books i've ever read!
Review: I've read it when i was only 12 years, and since then i've tried looking for the same books because i've read mine so many time that they are falling into pieces.Also, the last books of Anne Golon aren't printed in English yet! Why not??!?? If all the books, including the last one's were printed in English with new and modern covers, you publisher's would be amazed with the amount of people buying them all! And you can count me in to buy them too!! Please, give a chance to new readers( and us fans) to enjoy Anne Golon's books!

Summary: fascinating story
Review: when I first read this story I was a yuong girl of teenage years. I remember not putting down the book until I read the last page and yet leaving me wanting for more. 30 years have passed I speak english now and I would like to be able to read Angelique again, but my collection in italian went up in smoke when my house burnt to the ground ten years ago.I still remember the accurate details of french history, the fascinating people, nobles and beggars that made this story alive. When I was in France 11 years ago we went to Versailles to have a look at the beautiful royal palace. I was lost for words...wonderful paintings on walls and the ceilings, I almost expected to see Philip Belliere come out from somewhere on his red hilled shoes!!!! and courtesied. Wonderful books really I would like to find again and buy them, either in english or italian. I would feel like a teeneger again.

Summary: The most entertaining and exciting story I've ever read
Review: You'll only have to read the first lines or the first pages of "Angelique,Marquise of the Angels" to realize that you have laid your hands on something really special. History and fiction but different from anything you've read before. The characters are deep and real, there are surprises coming when you don't expect them. It's an incredible adventure, unforgettable love story! And so well written! This book is near to perfect in every aspect.
