A review by rach_eb
The Prisoner of Zenda by Anthony Hope

3.0

This was a fun, swashbuckling adventure that I found quite entertaining. It gets three stars from me because I found the protagonist to be an overly proud, sexist jerk, even for the 1890s. With lines like "women are careless, forgetful creatures" sprinkled throughout the book, he was easy to hate. But aside from the protag and the stereotypes, I enjoyed the daring deeds and adventurous spirit of the tale.
