H. Rider Haggard Collection - Love Eternal and Lysbeth
註釋Renowned as one of the most skilled action-adventure novelists ever to set pen to paper, fans and critics alike love H. Rider Haggard's ability to concoct a perfect blend of romance and pulse-pounding suspense. In Love Eternal, Haggard is at the peak of his form, skillfully weaving fascinating questions about reincarnation and mortality into a thrilling action tale. Though H. Rider Haggard is today best remembered as one of the foremost figures in the action-adventure genre, he also produced several top-notch works of historical fiction in his time. Lysbeth unfolds in sixteenth-century Holland, where the Protestants in the region were subjected to brutal oppression and persecution at the hands of the Spanish. For an exhaustively researched account of this little-discussed period that will make you feel as if you'd lived through it yourself, give this gripping historical novel a read.
