The Further Adventures of Zorro
Read by Bill Homewood
unabridged
The swashbuckling sequel to The Mark of Zorro (The Curse of Capistrano), The Further Adventures of Zorro sees the daring hero out for revenge once more. After Captain Ramon kidnaps the beautiful Lolita Pulido, Zorro takes to the seas and battles pirates in a bid to win her back. Swordfights, death traps and disastrously tight corners await him. But it is never much more than a challenge as the gallant caballero laughs in the face of danger – nothing can faze him. Villainous villains, heroic heroes and damsels in distress are all brought to life in full sonic splendour.

Reviews
Don Diego Vega is expecting to settle down to the ‘peace and quiet’ of married life. On the eve of his wedding, though, the pirate Barbados and his crew raid Los Angeles – and kidnap Don Diego’s bride-to-be. Narrator Bill Homewood milks the melodrama as Zorro puts on the mask one more time to face the self-described pirate and the corrupt authority of Captain Ramon. Homewood’s fast pace keeps Zorro cheating death, and keeps the listener’s pulse racing. It’s no surprise that the dialogue, at times, is clichéd, with Barbados taunting Zorro and his caballero companions. Ramon gets an especially slimy voice as he covets Don Diego’s bride. Listeners will have heard it all before, but it’s read with zest.
