Summary: Wonderful story - full of action and suspense!
Review: Although I have not finished the book, I have seen two versions of the movie. Every time Sir Percy recites, "They seek him here, they seek him there. Those Frenchies seek him everywhere! Is he in heaven? Or is he in (pause - giggle)? That demmed elusive Pimpernel!" with his foppish accent, you just want to scream, "HE'S THE PIMPERNEL, YOU IDIOTS! IT'S HIM!!!!!!!!"Wonderfull story!

Summary: A Tale of Trust
Review: Although this novel is full of adventure and comedy, it is truly a romantic tale about trusting the ones you love. I read it after seeing the musical on Broadway and was so moved by the original story. Two episodes particularly come to mind as they broke my heart. The tale through Marguerite's eyes is refreshing and heart warming and I recommend it to anyone with a sense of adventure and romance.

Summary: This book was very slow-moving and dull.
Review: I was assigned to read a novel in my Junior year Dual Enrollment English class. For some reason, I chose the Scarlet Pimpernel, mainly because it was about 8 times shorter than Tom Jones or David Copperfield. I couldn't get into the book at all, and in fact, I couldn't even finish it. Maybe I'll try to read it again someday, but I doubt it. My advice? Read something else, like Tom Jones, where there are atleast Cliff Notes or a Movie about it. Maybe because everyone here has given this book 4 and 5 stars, it seems I have no clue what I'm talking about. I tried to give it a chance, but I simply could not follow the reading. If you are willing to give this dull and slow book a fair chance, by all means, go for it.

Summary: ~*the bombest book*~
Review: this is really a good book... i'm totally serious. i wasn't expectin much when i first checked it out in the school library cuz the freshman english class read it. so i thought... if you read it for school, it probably isn't THAT good... but i was wrong. its an awesome book and one hardly expects this kind of thriller in the french revolution. thats why i bought it...through amazon~*!

Summary: They Seek Adventure Here and Find It!!
Review: I read the Scarlet Pimpernel after having seen the movie and heard the music from the Broadway Musical. I was not disappointed!! Though I would have preferred more from Percy or Chauvelin's point of view it is a demm fine read! Anyone who can read this book and not laugh out loud at Percy's foppishness or shudder at Chauvelin's evilness has no heart for adventure. So come on, join in and search for the Scarlet Pimpernel!!!

Summary: "They seek him here,they seek him there." Here's why!
Review: Having read this book roughly 4 times now,I can fully back the review of 5 stars. It is by far the best tale of Revolutionary France that I've ever read. Sir Percy's foppish tendencies keep the reader entertained while Chauvelin chases after him,adding much suspense. Percy's love, Marguerite, is who every girl would like to be. She is famed, beautiful,and wife to the swashbuckley and elusive Scarlet Pimpernel. Of course,one cannot forget the abundance of run-ins with Madame la Guillotine! I highly recommend reading this book, no matter what your usual preference of literature may be. It's amazing! "They seek him here,they seek him there. Those Frenchies seek him everywhere. Is he in heaven? or is he in hell? That demmed elusive Pimpernel." ~*

Summary: The absolute best book I have ever read!
Review: There's something for everyone in this classic: intriguing history, daring adventure, powerful romance, and old-fashioned hero-vs.-villain conflict. I first read this when I was in 10th grade (a long time ago!), and reading hasn't been the same since: nothing has ever topped The Scarlet Pimpernel.

Summary: Absolutely Incredible!!
Review: I saw Scarlet Pimpernel on Broadway, and the next night I found an etext of it online. I stayed up reading it until I literally fell asleep at my computer. I picked it up again the next morning, and I was thrilled. The characters are wonderful, and the plot just sweeps you along.
