Review: The Mark of Zorro
Given my love of serial fiction – especially comics – it may be surprising that I’ve never sat down and read the original Zorro story. This is the 1924 The Mark of Zorro, a version of the serialized Curse of Capistrano story from Johnston McCulley, and it is a ripsnorter. McCulley is a pseudonym who created many such mystery men. It is easy to see why Zorro is the most famous.
Like the Sharpe‘s Rifles books, there is not too much to say about Zorro, except that it is a brilliantly written page turner. Check it out sometime.
