The Daily Express:--"A most cleverly contrived farcical comedy full of really fresh incidents, and a dialogue that is genuinely amusing; there is not a character who is not always welcome and full of entertainment."
THE CUSTODIAN.
The Morning Post:--"An exceptionally clever and entertaining novel; the reader is compelled to finish the book when he has once taken it up....
It is impossible to resist its attractions."
THE GIRL IN WAITING.
The Daily Mail:--"This is quite a delightful book. The note is struck ingeniously and hilariously on the doorstep. It is a most enjoyable comedy, which must be read to be appreciated. We can cordially recommend it."
HEADON HILL
A RACE WITH RUIN.
The Morning Advertiser says:--"A book by Headon Hill may always be relied on to provide good reading with plenty of incident. In 'A Race with Ruin' he fully maintains his reputation. A good, stirring story with an admirable and well-worked-out plot."
MILLIONS OF MISCHIEF.
The Stage says:--"Not even the late Guy Boothby imagined anything more magnificently preposterous than the motive of Mr. Headon Hill's 'Millions of Mischief.'"
THE AVENGERS.
The Tribune says:--"Mr. Hill's new book, 'The Avengers,' has not a dull line, and one's pulse is kept on the jig all the time."
UNMASKED AT LAST.
The Sheffield Telegraph says:--"The story is in the author's most approved style, one of those alluringly audacious plots that Headon Hill revels in."
THE HIDDEN VICTIM.
SIR Wm. MAGNAY, BART.
THE RED CHANCELLOR.
Lloyd's News says:--"A story full of action, with its characters strongly drawn. The book altogether is one that can be most heartily recommended."
THE MAN OF THE HOUR.
The Pall Mall Gazette says:--"Of sterling merit. The plot of the book is as well contrived as in any tale of the kind we have read."
COUNT ZARKA.
The World says:--"Clever and entertaining. The narrative is brisk; it affords us glimpses of forest scenery which we like, and one remarkable departure from beaten tracks, a woman's duel in earnest. This feat of arms forms the subject of an ill.u.s.tration in his best manner by Maurice Grieffenhagen."
FAUCONBERG.
The Field says:--"The book has a grip, and should be a success. The ultimate fate of Fauconberg is always in doubt from the beginning to the unexpected ending."
THE MASTER SPIRIT.
The Court Journal says:--"A capital story. The intensely interesting situation is developed with much ingenuity and power.... A really fascinating novel."
THE MYSTERY OF THE UNICORN.
GUY BOOTHBY
THE RACE OF LIFE.

FOR LOVE OF HER.
The Court Journal says:--"The many admirers of Mr. Guy Boothby will welcome another volume from his pen, and will not be disappointed in their expectations. The book shows vivid imagination and dramatic power. Moreover, sketches of Australian life, from one who knows his subject, are always welcome."
A CRIME OF THE UNDER SEAS.
The Speaker says:--"Is quite the equal in art, observation, and dramatic intensity to any of Mr. Guy Boothby's numerous other romances, and is in every respect most typical of his powers."
A BID FOR FREEDOM.
The Sheffield Telegraph says:--"As fascinating as any of its forerunners, and is as finely handled. 'A Bid for Freedom' discloses a powerfully written romance, which bristles with thrilling pa.s.sages, exciting adventures, and hairbreadth escapes."
A TWO-FOLD INHERITANCE.
Punch says:--"Just the very book that a hard-working man should read for genuine relaxation. This novel is strongly recommended by the justly appreciating 'Baron de Bookworms.'"
The Glasgow Herald says:--"Contains all the elements that have made Mr.
Boothby's works popular the world over, and it will be read with zest by thousands of his admirers."

MY STRANGEST CASE.
The Yorks.h.i.+re Post says:--"No work of Mr. Boothby's seems to us to have approached in skill his new story. It is worked out with real ingenuity, and written with so much skill that the reader's attention is from first to last riveted on the narrative."
FAREWELL, NIKOLA.
The Dundee Advertiser says:--"Guy Boothby's famous creation of Dr.
