Georgette Heyer - An appreciation by Stephen Fry

I know there are a lot of Georgette Heyer fans here and a lot of Stephen Fry fans as well. Turns out that Fry is also a fan of Heyer, going by an article in the Guardian.

Quote:
But there is another style of literary historical fiction whose project it is to research and reproduce the airs, modes and everyday details of a period with so much authenticity that you might almost be reading an author of that age. Georgette Heyer stands as first among equals in this approach.
Quote:
you will discover her to be one of the wittiest, most insightful and rewarding prose writers imaginable.
