" The novel is broken into three parts; three "books." The setting is the 1790's but the book was written in the 1920's. The first book was an easy read much like action/adventure stories of today. The second book was a bit of a bummer for me. It reminded "

" This is now my favorite swashbuckling French Revolution novel. I still love The Scarlet Pimpernel, but Scaramouche is much more interesting. "

" Since I was a young teenager I've been a fan of Sabatini's Captain Blood. Scaramouche I think is even better. Yes there are witty lines, nuanced fencing scenes and plenty of daring-do, at the same time this has a far more satisfying story-line. Yes any well-read reader will recognise many of the twists and turns. However sabatini keeps the pace and mystery and excitement right to the last page - quite an achievement. "

" this is a very entertaining read. it's clever, interesting, unpredictable and completely mesmerizing. the first two parts are especially enlightening. I wish I had read this when I was a in high school as it is full of fascinating insight for a young man trying to find his way in the world. "

" Thoroughly enjoying it - for the second time. My edition, found rummaging my book shelves, is an elementary school discard. Can't recall if I actually got it in elementary school (it would have been grade 7 when I worked in the library as volunteer) but I know I read it sometime in my school days. "

" Just a tad slower then "Captain Blood" or "The Sea Hawk", none-the-less, "Scaramouche" was wonderfully conceived and raised significant issues that are still very valid today. Great ending. "

" Re-read October 2011: I read this the first time when I think I was 14. Liked it then. I liked it the second time through too, but I didn't have as big a respect for it. I didn't think it was that well written. Not bad either though. "
