The Georgette Heyer Challenge!

This competition was born from the Georgette Heyer Listserv. Listserv members would mail a quote or passage and other members would try to guess the correct novel, situation, and speaker if applicable. In the early days, anyone could "challenge" and the challenge was not over until someone got the right answer. Even with all our combined Heyer experience, some challenges did last quite some time.

While this page accesses the original challenges, it has not been kept up-to-date and there are now weekly challenges occurring on the Listserv, however you have to join to get access to these.

So, are you needle-witted or do you have more hair than wit?
