About this audiobook
Originally published in 1935, "The House of the Four Winds" is an adventure novel by Scottish writer John Buchan. A stunning Ruritanian romance, and the last of his three Dickson McCunn books, the novel is a must-read for anyone who has enjoyed his prequels, “Huntingtower” and “Castle Gay,” or any of Buchans' writings, and would be a worthy addition to any bookshelf.
"The House of the Four Winds" is set in the fictional Central European country of Evallonia in the early 1930s, and explores the influence of some Scottish visitors in the overthrow of a corrupt republic - and the restoration of the monarchy.
In his latest adventure, the main character, Scottish grocer Dickson McCunn, plays his most complex and interesting role. On the other hand, Gorbals Die-hards, Jaikie and his friends, are now involved in politics and are warned to avoid Evallonia on their journey across Europe, considering the risk of being arrested by the barbarian Mastrovin. They will not be able to resist the temptation and their fate, like Evallonia's, will be in the hands of someone to rescue them...it is then that Dickson McCunn will have the most important role of his life…
