All of the stories have a hint of the supernatural in their subject matter. At the back of the book is a list of the first 169 issues of the Kings Treasuries Series.… (altro)

The story is a retelling of the legend of Tristan and Isolde, and is actually written by Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch and only finished by Daphne du Maurier after his death. It has none of her flair or style and is positively boring in places. I found the end both expected and unmoving. In fact, none of the characters interested me in the least. By three-quarters through I was fighting the urge to just lay it aside.

Arthur Quiller-Couch's retelling is absolutely perfect, but the illustrations by Angel Dominguez struck the wrong note. Beauty is a very modern girl, lipsticked and eyelined for the natural-and-utterly-innocent look. She'd be perfect for the cover of a sultry 21st century romance or mystery, not so much for a classic fairy tale. I couldn't bear to look at the illustrations again, despite the gorgeous costumes, so I gave the book away.

I really enjoyed this yarn. But then it's a of a genre intended to keep teenage boys entertained in the early 20th Century and I have always enjoyed those stories by authors such as, Strang, Henty, Kingston and Ballantyne - even though I am and old dude now. What the storyline is doesn't matter much. This one visits Cornwall, Corsica and Genoa in the 1700s and it does include a couple of love interests; good, meaty, standard stuff for me.
My copy is an abridgement presented in one of the nice little Kings Treasuries of Literature books.… (altro)
