Waverley Novels V32 (1831) is a book written by Sir Walter Scott and is part of the Waverley Novels series. This particular volume contains two novels, Durward and Quentin. Durward is set in the 15th century and follows the story of a young Scottish soldier named Quentin Durward who is sent to France to serve in the court of King Louis XI. Quentin finds himself caught up in a web of political intrigue and romance as he becomes involved with the king's daughter, Isabella. Quentin is torn between his loyalty to his Scottish heritage and his growing affection for Isabella.Quentin, on the other hand, is set in the 16th century and tells the story of a young man named Quentin Durward (not to be confused with the protagonist of the first novel) who is sent to the court of King Louis XII of France. Quentin becomes involved in a plot to overthrow the king and must navigate the dangerous political landscape of the French court to protect his own life and the lives of those he cares about.Both novels are filled with adventure, romance, and political intrigue, and offer a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval and Renaissance Europe. Sir Walter Scott's vivid descriptions and engaging characters make this book a must-read for fans of historical fiction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
