This collection of linked short stories is a prequel: it was written immediately after the success of The Prisoner of Zenda, but is set in the 1730s, well over a century before the events of Zenda and its sequel, Rupert of Hentzau. The stories deal with the love life of Princess Osra, younger sister of Rudolf III, the shared ancestor of Rudolf Rassendyll, the English gentleman who acts as political decoy inThe Prisoner of Zenda, and Rudolph V of the House of Elphberg, the absolute monarch of that Germanic kingdom.… (mere)

If you have read the Prisoner of Zenda or other Anthony Hope books then you know what to expect. This book, however, contains little or none of Hope's adventure-writing style and is, instead, just a description of the people that fall in love with Osra's beautiful looks and then die because of it.

This lightweight and highly amusing collection of interrelated stories by the author of the more famous novel The Prisoner of Zenda, concerns the various suitors of the beautiful Princess Osra, who lived in the century before the events in Zenda and Rupert of Hentzau. They are full of all the melodramatic clichés that one would expect of a novel of of this period and are all the more enjoyable for this in between more serious reads, An amusing page turner. ( )

A collection of short stories set in eighteenth-century Ruritania --a kind of prequel to prisoner of Zenda, about a series of men who fall in love with Princess Osra. The individual stories vary in quality; some a bit grim like the first one, some silly, some gallant -- to me the best is The Sin of the BIshop of Modenstein, in which a coillateral ancestor of Rupert of Hentzau amply proves the saying that good Hentzaus (like the bishop0 fear God, and bad ones do not, but none of them fear anything in the world besides..
