A COURIER OF FORTUNE.
The Daily Telegraph says:--"An exciting romance of the 'cloak and rapier.' The fun is fast and furious; plot and counterplot, ambushes and fightings, imprisonment and escapes follow each other with a rapidity that holds the reader with a taste for adventure in a state of more or less breathless excitement to the close. Mr. Marchmont has a spirited manner in describing adventure, so that we pass on from incident to incident, each of them having its part in the development of affairs which culminate in the death of the 'Tiger of Morvaix.'"
The Bristol Mercury says:--"The author's characters are drawn with such art as to make each a distinct personality. Gabrielle is a girl whose wits grow sharper in the emergency of the man she loves. 'A Courier of Fortune' is quite one of the liveliest books we have read."
BY WIT OF WOMAN.
The Morning Leader says:--"A stirring tale of dramatic intensity, and full of movement and exciting adventure. The author has evolved a character worthy to be the wife of Sherlock Holmes. She is the heroine; and what she did not know or could not find out about the Hungarian Patriot Party was not worth knowing."
The Standard says:--"Mr. Marchmont is one of that small band of authors who can always be depended upon for a distinct note, a novel plot, an original outlook. 'By Wit of Woman' is marked by all the characteristic signs of Mr. Marchmont's work."
THE LITTLE ANARCHIST.
The Scotsman says:--"A romance, brimful of incident and arousing in the reader a healthy interest that carries him along with never a pause--a vigorous story with elements that fascinate. In invention and workmanship the novel shows no falling off from the high standard of Mr. Marchmont's earlier books."
The Irish Independent:--"It is in every way worthy of Mr. Marchmont's previous productions. He has treated the dialogue and descriptive matter in his usual brilliant style, the plot is well developed, and the reader's interest being secured in the opening chapter is held throughout to the end."
Manchester City News says:--"It is no whit behind its predecessors in stirring episode, thrilling situation and dramatic power. The story grips in the first few lines and holds the reader's interest until 'finis' is written."
