About this audiobook
If you've read and loved the exciting classic "The Scarlet Pimpernel" then you'd probably be delighted to follow the further adventures of the dashing Sir Percy Blakeney. "El Dorado" by Baronness Emma Orczy depicts the intrepid swordsman and escape artist in the role of savior of the French royal family.
Published in 1913, "El Dorado" was the fourth in the Pimpernel series of eleven books, numerous short stories and other related writings about her famous British adventurer. However, Orczy did not always follow a strict chronological sequence while publishing the novels and hence, there is plenty of overlap between the time frames of the stories. "El Dorado" is famous for its being the basis on which most of the film and stage adaptations of "The Scarlet Pimpernel" have been based.
