Georgette Heyer

[shakatany]

Just finished re-reading These Old Shades for the umpteenth time. It's my favorite Georgette Heyer novel. She was an incredible writer of Georgian and Regency romances especially in her earlier days--only 19 when The Black Moth was published and only 24 when TOS came out. I wish some smart TV producer would get the rights to TBM, TOS and Devil's Cub and call the series "The Duke's Trilogy" or something. She was a very private person so I fear that the holdup may be her estate though The Reluctant Widow was made into a movie in 1951 and there was a German movie made of Arabella in 1959. For more on Georgette Heyer go here. To read "The Wages of Vice", a slashy sequel to These Old Shades go here.
