Talk:The Secret of the Tower

Reviews

 * The Nation, 1919 Oct 4: A similar disappointment is in store for those who admired the unquestionable dash, verve, and brilliancy of Mr.Anthony Hope's Zenda stories. A treasure in a tower, a false suspicion, a madman, and a stereotyped happy ending are all that Mr. Hope has left. It is hard to believe that this book is by the hand that once wrote "Rupert of Hentzau" and "The Dolly Dialogues."


 * The Outlook, 12 Nov 1919: This is the first novel written by Anthony Hope since the beginning of the war in 1914. It is agreeable to find that the novelist has not lost the old-time thrill of "The Prisoner of Zenda." The present story is a romantic mystery novel and the scene is laid in post-war England.
