Critic reviews
"Johanna Ward is fun to listen to. She puts the author's rather melodramatic prose in the best possible light by reading with restraint, gravity, and authority." (AudioFile)

I did not like the Heroine at all. Her plight and oath seemed ridiculous. She portrays the innocence of an ingenue even though she's mid-20s Her inner monologue was trite, and her emotional lability gave me whiplash. She had very few redeeming qualities, and the Hero falling in love with her diminished his splendor in my eyes. Even when she was in trouble, I cared not, but tolerated it to get to the main Pimpernel parts of the story.
The book did have some unique and interesting side characters, appropriate pageantry and excellent storytelling. For example, the anti-heroine was unexpected, yet poingnant and strongly drove the plot forward.
Overall, I enjoyed this audiobook. Going on to the next book in series.
Delicious Classic, Worthy for an Audible

What did you like best about I Will Repay? What did you like least?
The story would have been much better if fleshed out, and as a standalone I hated the fact it is presented overall as a "Scarlet Pimpernel" novel. The character makes but a cameo, and Marguerite, where is Margyerite? Perhaps she is in disguise. Published about 100 years ago. Today we would call it a rip off due to it being labeled a Scarlet Pimpernel novel.Would you be willing to try another book from Baroness Emma Orczy? Why or why not?
Have read other Orczy Scarlet Pimpernel novels and enjoyed them. Intend to read more.What about Johanna Ward’s performance did you like?
Well done, about 20 years ago. Still the narration does add to the novel.Did I Will Repay inspire you to do anything?
Not really.Any additional comments?
Won't read it again, or recommend the book.The story was Nnot as good as it should.

Where does I Will Repay rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
This audiobook ranks highly for me because I am a Scarlet Pimpernel fan and have read all the books. It is very difficult to come across very many of these books in audiobook format. So this is rare.What was one of the most memorable moments of I Will Repay?
I liked the scene where the Sir Blakeney (AKA the Scarlet Pimpernel) meets with Anne Mie who is of the household of Paul Déroulèdes is not very beautiful and is plainly jealous of Juliet, but Blakeney treats her with respect and tells her plainly what she asks to know. It shows what a great soul Sir Blakeney is and possibly one reason he has been risking his life to save people from the guillotine.Which scene was your favorite?
Juliet's father forces her to swear an oath before God that she will avenge her brother's death even though he died in a fair fight.Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
I usually listen to a little bit at a time while I am cooking, or doing things where I can play an audiobook and listen.Any additional comments?
If you are a Scarlet Pimpernel fan, you will find this book has some of the least Pimpernel scenes of any of the books. It focuses mostly on the romance between Juliet and Paul and betrayal, then remorse and love.More of a romance story
