Concerning this novel and its sequel Rupert of Hentzau:
Hope's "relevance to sf is indirect though pervasive ...
Beyond a plethora of coincidences and doublings, and a dream-like sense of magic enablement, there is nothing inherently fantasticated in Hope's actual tales, beyond the fact that Ruritania does not exist."
-- SFE3, biographical entry by John Clute
Set in Ruritania – the original.
"Ruritania is a fictional country, originally located in central Europe as a setting for novels by Anthony Hope, such as The Prisoner of Zenda (1894). Nowadays the term connotes a quaint minor European country, or is used as a placeholder name for an unspecified country in academic discussions."
--Wikipedia, "Ruritania"
