From Library Journal

The Marquis of Vidal is a bad lot a rake and seducer, reckless, heedless, and possessed of a murderous temper. He is known by friend and foe alike as the "Devil's Cub." Yet as the handsome and wealthy heir to a Dukedom, he is considered a good prospect on the marriage market. Vidal currently has his eye on the young, lovely, and unintelligent Sophia Challoner, and Sophia's greedy mother is more than happy to encourage his dubious attentions. The colorful and eccentric characters fall over each other's plots, get involved in very peculiar coincidences, engage in colorful derring-do, and generally make life difficult for each other. Narrator Michael Drew manages to distinguish one character from another without the verbal gymnastics that the plot would seem to require, allowing the listener to concentrate on the Shakespearian plot and priceless dialog. Enthusiastically recommended for libraries where romance and/or Heyer are popular. Barbara Rhodes, Northeast Texas Lib. Syst., Garland

Product Description

The excesses of the young Marquis of Vidal are even wilder than his father’s before him. Not for nothing is the
reckless duelist and gamester called “the Devil’s Cub.”

5.0étoiles sur 5 Love and Honor at it's Best, Juil 8 2004
Par M. Bechyne "free_fall" (Downey, CA United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
This is a sequel to These Old Shades, being about the son of the Duke of Avon and Leonie. Dominic's wild behavior and bad temper earn him the nickname Devil's Cub. When he crosses pathes with a sweet, practical miss, he has met his match! A mad romp starting in London, going through Paris and ending in the French countryside, this is a must read for Heyer fans.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Amazing!!!, Avril 13 2004
The first Georgette Heyer book I've read was....Arrabella and April Lady. I didnt like them much to be frank. The romance wasn't that...romantic....Im more of a X-rated book reader XD But after reading Devil's Cub,expecting to be bored and dissapointed,I was amazed at how good it was. There was no sex.....and yet it was such an interesting book. It touched me...made me laugh....and made me cry sooo much!!! This has been the best book I've ever read. I also read all of Jane Austens book,I heard Georgette Heyers was like Miss Austen...but Heyers is so much more romantic!!!!

3.0étoiles sur 5 Devil's Cub, Mars 8 2004
Devil's Cub is the sequel to These Old Shades and concerns the son of Justin and Leonine, Vidal. While These Old Shades is my second favorite Heyer, after Frederica, I was disturbed by the character of Vidal in Devil's Cub. At the book's beginning Heyer shows us two scenes from Vidal's life, in both of which Vidal kills a man (a highwayman and another aristocrat in an impromptu, drunken duel) with no regrets or even concern. Unlike his father in Shades, who is converted by love into being a better man than he thought possible, Vidal remains a spoiled, little boy on the inside. That his love interest likes that about him is unfortunate. I give this book 3-stars for the scenes with Justin, Duke of Avon, which are witty and wonderful. I just wish more of the father had found himself in the son.
