This was a very enjoyable read, and I liked seeing Percy's story in the historical context around him, even if Baroness Orczy didn't really care much about historical accuracy. :D. I hope to read more from you in the future.

'Seventy was old, but not THAT old.'
When WILL you feel old then? Oh man, Percy, still the swashbuckling savior of the 1790's, yeah? Anyway, that got me laughing. Like, he's freaking SEVENTY and he thinks that's not old? My God, this man's a treasure!

So sweet and lovely! It's so nice to read a different sort of story with our beloved characters as older individuals. I also loved that you put real history in your fanfiction, I think more people should be doing that. Great job!

Wow, I loved this! It's such a wonderful continuation of the series. My favorite part was when Percy realized that Marguerite's hair was not red anymore. Bittersweet, but lovely :) xo Mel

How wonderful for the author to envision an aging Sir Percy, flanked by a grey-haired, no less tart and quick-witted Marguerite! (Percy's appreciation of Marguerite's hair, silver or red, was particularly endearing.) And what a really good premise, to have Percy Blakeney contemplating the vicissitudes of nineteenth-century French politics. This reviewer would like to give Guizot brownie points for appointing a General Inspector of Historical Monuments, even if it was Prosper Merimee, and even if Guizot's political cluelessness-as monumental as the edifices Merimee was charged to maintain-would lead to yet another revolution fourteen years later. But perhaps Sir Percy would not live to see that last one.

At any rate, this is a beautifully written, well-researched, perceptive, and provocative piece.

And they have yet to have the year of revolutions in 1848 when the old streets were to be purged, the buildings pulled down and new boulevards built that were too wide to conveniently barricade. Under Napoleon III if I recall correctly. My French history is lousy.
