О чём писать, если не имеешь о том никакого представления? Это самое тяжёлое в жизни писателя, не умеющего ещё понять, о чем ему вообще следует рассказывать. Годного для художественной обработки много, а её достойного почему-то не находится. Следует поступить по рецепту Хаггарда. Находите человека, убеждаете его составить вам компанию. После находите другого человека, который о вашем замысле ничего не должен знать, в идеале ему не полагается узнать и после. Лучше, если им окажется постороннееVictorian romance/family saga with feuding cousins, True Love, and plenty of people/forces conspiring to keep the lovers apart, including one woman who in some ways might prefigure Haggard's She. This was Haggard's first novel and it's competent enough (although the auctorial voice can be obnoxiously overbearing at times) but not particularly memorable. There's a soupçon of mysticism at the end, but no overtly fantastic elements; had he not gone on to invent the lost race genre with She and King
Although this tale is not one of Haggard's "High Adventure" stories, I loved it. Around the two-thirds point I read late into the night, totally caught up in this tale. It begins with a young man cheated of his inheritance by his lying, ingratiating cousin and a secret marriage. Then the story really gets going.
Sir Henry Rider Haggard, KBE was an English writer of adventure novels set in exotic locations, predominantly Africa, and the creator of the Lost World literary genre. His stories, situated at the lighter end of the scale of Victorian literature, continue to be popular and influential. He was also involved in agricultural reform and improvement in the British Empire. His breakout novel was KingAlthough this tale is not one of Haggard's "High Adventure" stories, I loved it.

Awesome simply awesome! The writer describes the behavior of the different character's, which allows one to feel the character's whether the character is cunning, deceitful, or just plain envious. I like the way he would sort of advice the reader of what behaviors are not to be mimic or followed. This book is full of adventure, and love stories that are as real as in today's times, especially when parents do not approve of. I highly recommend!
I enjoyed it. It has some truly great scoundrels. It got a little boring in parts when Haggard is giving waxing philosophical.
