Candide is a French satire first published in 1759 by Voltaire. The book was widely banned because it contained religious blasphemy, political sedition and intellectual hostility. From Wikipedia: "It parodies many adventure and romance clichés, the struggles of which are caricatured in a tone that is mordantly matter-of-fact. Still, the events discussed are often based on historical happenings, such as the Seven Years' War and the 1755 Lisbon earthquake."

Just thought of putting this great swash-buckling, adventures of the original superhero. copy from Project Gutenberg.

And, just to make certain everything goes according to his plan, Chauvelin has Marguerite kidnapped and imprisoned! Can Percy continue to disguise himself as Rateau and get away with it? Can Robespierre maintain power when betrayal is stirring in every corner? Will Marguerite be rescued without suffering the death of her husband? Will Chauvelin ever learn to tie his cravat properly?!

The Adventures of the Scarlet Pimpernel by Baroness Emmuska Orczy. I do not own the story. Just thought of putting this great swash-buckling, adventures of the original superhero. copy from Project Gutenberg. The second collection of short stories featuring Sir Percy Blakeney, The Scarlet Pimpernel. Set in revolutionary France in 1793, these further adventures will thrill the first time reader as much as those who are familiar with the Pimpernel and the League. Their arch enemy Chauvelin and the Committee of Public Safety are never far behind, whilst back in England the beautiful Marguerite maintains her devotion.­
