Set in Los Angeles during the era of early 19th-century Colonial Spanish California, the story introduces us to wealthy, young aristocrat Don Diego de la Vega, son of the richest ranchero in the country. Don Diego is an idler who has never concerned himself with more than the cut of his clothes.

With a mad king, a virtual civil war between the houses of Orleans and Burgundy, and King Henry V of England claiming the French throne, there is plenty of opportunity for Guy Aylmer, a squire to Sir Eustace de Villeroy, to show his mettle in many a skirmish, finally winning his spurs at the lopsided victory of the English over the French at the Battle of Agincourt on October 25, 1415.

After the jealous tyrant Don Rodrigo foils their wedding, young Lombardian peasants Lucia and Lorenzo must separate and flee for their safety. Their difficult path to matrimony takes place against the turbulent backdrop of the Thirty Years War, where lawlessness and exploitation are at their height. Lucia takes refuge in a convent, where she is later abducted and taken on a nightmarish journey to a sinister castle, while Lorenzo goes to Milan, where he witnesses famine, riots, and plague - all evoked through meticulous description and with stunning immediacy.

Historians have long whispered that Elizabeth "the Virgin Queen's" passionate, lifelong affair with Robin Dudley, Earl of Leicester, may have led to the birth of a son, Arthur Dudley. In this exquisite sequel to The Secret Diary of Anne Boleyn, Robin Maxwell fashions a stunning fictional account of the child switched at birth by a lady-in-waiting who foresaw the deleterious political consequences of a royal bastard.

Fun romantic adventure, lively narration
I wasn’t familiar with the story and had so much fun listening to this book. Wonderful narrator. The story is pretty simple, focused on love and honor, only 9 characters. It breezes by and leaves you warm and fuzzy.

A great audio book
Amazing narrator and excellent story! A true Zorro classic. Definitely worth listening to for any Zorro fans, and Bill Homewood does an amazing job of voicing the characters.

A Great Adventure Story For The Whole Family!
I'll be the first to admit that I was shocked to find out that Zorro was originally a literary character. That being said, this story still holds up even after over a century. While the twist ending can be seen coming from the moment Zorro makes his first appearance nowadays, he was also the first character like that to have lasting impact. It needs to be noted that, while billed as an unabridged production, this audiobook leaves out the first two pages or thereabouts of the second chapter, though it doesn't really impact anything. Homewood's performance really is commendable and works with the story and setting.

Excellent
I have seen the movies and even the cartoons in my life but I've never actually listened to the original novels until now. Zorro is a thrill ride of swashbuckling actions and adventure worthy of the heroes of it's time and today.
