Yes! I thought that he hadn't noticed that there was a new addition 10 years ago and then another new edition more recently - not something that happens to a writer of small appeal. These aren't low-interest novels at all. They may be mostly fluff but Heyer is a very intelligent writer and, when she pulls out the stops, she is a very talented one. We had a radio show host dismiss her as "trash" recently and I almost rang in to defend her. Just because she writes romance, and mostly fluffy romance, it makes her an easy target but she is far better than that, even if not all her novels are top-notch.
