A twisted tale indeed, featuring love lost, alluring demons, idiotic
servants, beautiful ladies, magicians, spells, pirates, and duels, Stolen from
Gypsies has been called a comedic tour de force comparable to Shakespeare.

The unusual hero is British nobelman Ambrogio Smythe, a rich but comical hypochondriac.
Obsessed by childhood memories of Gypsies, the frail but determined Ambrogio leaves his
ancestral estate in Warwickshire and makes his way to Italy during the Napoleonic Wars.
Finding himself happily marooned in Tuscany, Ambrogio meets a wandering storyteller who
spins him a magical yarn about a Gypsy babe kidnapped by a demon. Ambrogio buys a
shred of parchment as evidence and begins to write his own florid version of the saga, vowing
one day to publish it in high style.

With a sure hand, the author takes us back and forth from Ambrogio's Italian abode to "The
Gypsy's Tale" in a rousing adventure full of action and insight.
