Maurice Leblanc
Maurice Leblanc (1864 - 1941) was a French novelist, best known as the creator of gentleman thief (later detective) Arsène Lupin.Leblanc began as a journalist, until he was asked to write a short story filler, and created, more gallant and dashing than English counterpart Sherlock Holmes.
813
Maurice Leblanc
When one of Arséne Lupin' victims is found dead in a way that implicates the wily criminal, he insists on heading the police search for the real murderer. The mystery involves finding a package of letters once written to Bismarck, locating a clock on which the number 813 has significance, as well as causing a reigning emperor to make several journeys incognito. Murders by the dozens, suicide and mild forms of torture are warp and woof of the plot.
An Arsène Lupin Omnibus
Maurice Leblanc
Enter Arsène Lupin, Gentleman – Cambrioleur, the ‘Prince of Thieves’, one of the most daring and dashing individuals who ever lifted a diamond necklace from under the noses of the authorities. Young and handsome, laughing his way through difficulties and danger, Lupin is also the master of disguise and languages. His sense of humour and conceit make life difficult for the police who attribute most of the major crimes in France to Lupin and his gang of ruffians and urchins.
Maurice Leblanc’s stories are lively and witty, occasionally taking on the air of burlesque, especially when Lupin pits his wits against the English detective named variously ‘Holmlock Shears’ and ‘Herlock Sholmes’
These are significant tales in the history of crime fiction but, more importantly, they are great fun.

Arsene Lupin - Caballero Ladron
Maurice Leblanc
The suave adventures of a gentleman rogue—a French Thomas Crown Created by Maurice LeBlanc during the early twentieth century, Arsene Lupin is a witty confidence man and burglar, the Sherlock Holmes of crime. The poor and innocent have nothing to fear from him; often they profit from his spontaneous generosity. The rich and powerful, and the detective who tries to spoil his fun, however, must beware. They are the target of Arsene’s mischief and tomfoolery. A masterful thief, his plans frequently evolve into elaborate capers, a precursor to such cinematic creations as Ocean’s Eleven and The Sting. Sparkling with amusing banter, these stories—the best of the Lupin series—are outrageous, melodramatic, and literate.

Arsène Lupin: Cavalheiro Ladrão (Arsène Lupin, #1)
Maurice Leblanc
Ousado, sedutor e divertido, Arsène Lupin é o criminoso ladrão mais famoso do início do século XX. Responsável por uma série de crimes misteriosos em França, o anti-herói mantém um código de honra muito próprio: atormenta os seus oponentes, ridiculariza a burguesia e ajuda os mais fracos. Um Robin Hood muito francês, portanto. Não se leva muito a sério, a sua arma mais mortífera é a perspicácia e não é um aristocrata que se aclama como anarquista, mas sim um anarquista que vive como aristocrata.
Encarado como a irónica resposta francesa a Sherlock Holmes, este é o primeiro livro de uma série de vinte títulos empolgantes que Maurice Leblanc dedicou a Lupin, uma das personagens mais marcantes do policial de sempre.
Arsene Lupin contra Herlock Sholmes/ Arsene Lupine vs. Herlock Sholmes (Spanish Edition)
Maurice Leblanc
ARSÈNE LUPIN CONTRA HERLOCK SHOLMÈS . LAS HISTORIAS EN LAS QUE SE BASA LA NUEVA SERIE DE TELEVISIÓN DE NETFLIX.
LA SAGA LITERERARIA EN LA QUE SE INSPIRA LUPIN.
DESCUBRE LAS HISTORIAS QUE CAMBIARON LA VIDA DE ASSANE, EL HÉROE DE LA EXIT0SA SERIE DE NETFLIX DIRIGIDA POR EL GANADOR DE UN EMMY, LOUIS LETERRIER Y PROTAGONIZADA POR OMAR SY (INTOCABLE).
Un duelo a muerte entre el mejor detective de la historia de la literatura y el ladrón más brillante, caballeresco e intrépido que habita los anaqueles.
Arsène Lupin se ve envuelto en dos robos y una estafa. Las tres víctimas deciden unirse y llamar a Herlock Sholmès para que viaje desde Londres y ponga las cosas en su sitio. Sholmès descubre tres secretos que están a punto de perder a Lupin: los túneles ocultos por los que se mueve, el pseudónimo con el que vive entre la gente honesta, y su amor apasionado por la hija del arquitecto Destange. Pero las tornas se vuelven y Lupin no solo consigue escapar de Sholmès sino que lo envía prisionero en un barco de vuelta a Inglaterra.
Por eso, cuando el barón d'Imblevalle —a quien Lupin ha despojado de una lámpara judía donde guarda las joyas de la familia vuelve a llamarlo a Francia, Sholmès está preparado para la venganza.
Maurice Leblanc (1864-1941) creó Arsène Lupin en 1905 como protagonista de un cuento para una revista francesa. Leblanc nació en Ruan (Francia) pero empezó su carrera literaria en París. Había estudiado derecho, trabajaba en la empresa familiar y había escrito algunos libros de poco éxito cuando Lupin se convirtió en uno de los personajes más célebres de la literatura policíaca. Es un ladrón de guante blanco, culto y seductor, que roba a los malos. Es el protagonista de veinte novelas y relatos y sus aventuras lo han convertido también en héroe de películas y series para televisión. Para muchos, las historias de Arsène Lupin son la versión francesa de Sherlock Holmes.
Arsène Lupin contre Herlock Sholmès
Maurice Leblanc
Arsène Lupin contre Herlock Sholmès ! L'homme qui défie toutes les polices françaises contre l'as des détectives anglais. « C'est justement quand je ne comprends plus que je soupçonne Arsène Lupin », avoue le célèbre limier anglais. Quand deux hommes aussi intelligents s'affrontent, leur duel est un grand spectacle. Qui a volé le petit secrétaire d'acajou contenant un billet de loterie gagnant ? Qui a volé la lampe juive, le diamant bleu, joyau de la couronne royale de France ? Qui joue les passe-murailles en plein Paris ? Arsène Lupin, toujours lui, l'éternel amoureux de la Dame Blonde, plus insolent, plus ingénieux que jamais, déjouant une à une toutes les ruses de l'Anglais par d'autres ruses plus étonnantes encore.
Arsène Lupin. Dżentelmen włamywacz (Arsène Lupin, #1)
Maurice Leblanc
Maurice Leblanc w 1905 roku opublikował pierwszą historię opowiadającą o przygodach Arsène'a Lupina. Trafił w dziesiątkę. Arsène bardzo szybko stał się jednym z najpopularniejszych fikcyjnych bohaterów literackich.
Ten dżentelmen włamywacz o zdolnościach detektywistycznych mistrzowsko kradnie i mistrzowsko uwodzi. Nie ma kobiety, która potrafiłaby mu się oprzeć. Nie ma szyfru do sejfu, którego by nie złamał.
Okrada złych, nieuczciwych, bogatych, a broni słabych i pokrzywdzonych - karząca dłoń sprawiedliwości w jedwabnych rękawiczkach.
Oto on - doskonałe połączenie przeciwieństw: patriota, gdy jego kraj znajdzie się w potrzebie. Na co dzień anarchista, który kpi z policji i żyje jak arystokrata. Umysł bystry i niezależny.
Arsène Lupin, Gentleman cambrioleur
Maurice Leblanc
Arsène Lupin est arrêté : l'aventure est-elle donc finie pour lui ? Erreur ! Elle ne fait que commencer. C'est quand il est sous les verrous que la police devrait se méfier. Lupin change de domicile, de costume, de tête, d'écriture, connait tous les passages secrets et prend rendez-vous avec ses victimes avant de les cambrioler ! C'est le plus gentleman des cambrioleurs.
Arsène Lupin, gentleman cambrioleur (Arsène Lupin, #1)
Maurice Leblanc
Vif, audacieux, impertinent, rossant sans arrêt le commissaire (qui ici, en l'occurrence, s'appelle l'inspecteur Ganimard), tramant les coeurs après lui et mettant les rieurs de son côté, se moquant des situations acquises, ridiculisant les bourgeois, portant secours aux faibles, Arsène Lupin, gentleman cambrioleur est un Robin des Bois de la «Belle Époque ». Un Robin des Bois bien français : il ne se prend pas trop au sérieux, ses armes les plus meurtrières sont les traits d'esprit , ce n'est pas un aristocrate qui vit comme un anarchiste mais un anarchiste qui vit comme un aristocrate. Arsène Lupin, après plus d'un demi-siècle, n'a pas vieilli. Il ne vieillira jamais en dépit de son chapeau haut de forme, de sa cape et de son monocle.
Arsène Lupin. Gentleman-inbreker
Maurice Leblanc
‘Wees gewaarschuwd, goede lezer, bij de eerste ontmoeting raak je gecharmeerd, de volgende keer ben je verkocht en nadien wil je Lupin volgen waar hij je ook naartoe voert.’ Uit het voorwoord van Bart Van Loo.
Maurice Leblanc (Rouen, 1864 – Perpignan, 1941) schreef zijn eerste verhaal over Arsène Lupin in 1905 voor het tijdschrift Je sais tout. Lupin was het Franse antwoord op Sherlock Holmes en onmiddellijk een groot succes. Een nieuwe held was geboren. Maar liefst 21 boeken volgden. Arsène Lupin groeide uit tot een van Frankrijks meest geliefde personages.
In Arsène Lupin, gentleman-inbreker zijn de eerste negen Lupinverhalen opgenomen, voor het eerst gebundeld in 1907. Ze vormen de literaire geboorteakte van de Robin Hood van de belle époque, die steelt van de rijken en opkomt voor de armen. De verhalen zijn afzonderlijke pareltjes, die de auteur tot een heerlijk leessnoer heeft weten te rijgen. Pareltjes die ruim honderd jaar na dato nog steeds een genot zijn om te lezen. Voor zijn verdiensten voor de Franse literatuur werd Maurice Leblanc onderscheiden met de prestigieuze Légion d’honneur.
Arsene Lupin, Gentleman Thief
Maurice Leblanc
In 1907, Author Maurice Leblanc released the first collection of stories recounting the adventures of Arsene Lupin, a charming thief and master of disguises. The character became quite popular, featured in 17 novels and 39 novellas, inspiring generations of charming anti-heroes to follow. This brand new edition of the first Arsene Lupin novel is beautifully illustrated by artist Vincent Mallie, capturing the joyful style of an animated feature as if created by renowned director Hayao Miyazaki (whose first directorial release was LUPIN THE 3rd: The Castle of Cagliostro, which is filled with nods to Leblanc's classic character).
Collecting the first 9 novellas, this illustrated edition features dozens of black-and-white and full-color illustrations and plates including numerous two-page spreads that evoke the beauty and charm of a Studio Ghibli production.

Arséne Lupin Kalandjai
Maurice Leblanc
Arsene Lupin akár a bűnözők Sherlock Holmesa is lehetne: briliáns, rendíthetetlen és vakmerő. Emellett született úriember: elegáns, karizmatikus, nagyvonalú… és persze a nők odaadó híve. A Maurice Leblanc által teremtett mesterbűnöző az elmúlt évszázadban egymást követő nemzedékek képzeletét rejtette rabul lehetetlennek tűnő betöréseivel, és az általa végrehajtott bűncselekmények ellenére is szilárd erkölcsi érzékével.
Arsene Lupin nyomán a törvényt rugalmasan kezelő, ám aranyszívű úriember bűnözők egész sora hódította meg a könyveket és a filmvásznat - gondoljunk csak az Ocean's-filmekre -, 2021-ben pedig pedig óriási sikert arató tévésorozat tisztelgett előtte. Könyvünkben a legendás úriember bűnöző legizgalmasabb kalandjai olvashatók.

La Comtesse de Cagliostro
Maurice Leblanc
C'est ici la première aventure d'Arsène Lupin, et sans doute eût-elle été publiée avant les autres s'il ne s'y était maintes fois et résolument opposé.
«Non, disait-il, entre la comtesse de Cagliostro et moi, tout n'est pas réglé. Attendons.»
L'attente dura plus qu'il ne le prévoyait. Un quart de siècle se passa avant le règlement définitif. Et c'est aujourd'hui seulement qu'il est permis de raconter ce que fut l'effroyable duel d'amour qui mit aux prises un enfant de vingt ans et la fille de Cagliostro.

Maurice Leblanc

"Raymonde prêta l’oreille. De nouveau et par deux fois le bruit se fit entendre, assez net pour qu’on pût le détacher de tous les bruits confus qui formaient le grand silence nocturne, mais si faible qu’elle n’aurait su dire s’il était proche ou lointain, s’il se produisait entre les murs du vaste château, ou dehors, parmi les retraites ténébreuses du parc. "

Dommage !… Enfin !… Quand il sera là, vous lui direz ceci de la part de Mme Dugrival… Oui, Mme Nicolas Dugrival… Vous lui direz qu’il vienne chez moi. Il ouvrira la porte de mon armoire à glace et, cette porte ouverte, il constatera que l’armoire cache une issue qui fait communiquer ma chambre avec deux pièces. Dans l’une d’elles, il y a un homme solidement ligoté. C’est le voleur, l’assassin de Dugrival. Vous ne me croyez pas ? Avertissez M. Ganimard. Il me croira, lui. Ah ! J’oubliais le nom de l’individu… Arsène Lupin !»
Les dents du tigre (French Edition)
Maurice Leblanc
Le roman connaît une pré-publication en feuilleton dans Le Journal en 1920, mais a été écrit par Maurice Leblanc pendant la Première Guerre mondiale en 1918. Il relate le combat poignant d'Arsène Lupin, en tant que Don Luis Perenna, contre un ennemi sournois et manipulateur qui n'agit que par procuration en captivant ses victimes afin de s'attribuer un héritage de 200 millions. Extrait : Puis la voix s'affaiblit encore, des sons indistincts sortirent de ses lèvres blêmes. Sa bouche parut mâcher dans le vide, comme celle de certains vieillards qui ruminent interminablement. Sa tête s'inclina peu à peu sur sa poitrine. Il poussa deux ou trois soupirs, fut secoué d'un grand frisson et ne bougea plus. Et le râle de l'agonie commença, très bas, d'un rythme égal, avec des interruptions où un effort suprême de l'instinct semblait ranimer le souffle vacillant de l'esprit et susciter dans les yeux éteints comme des lueurs de conscience. À cinq heures moins dix, le préfet de police entrait dans son cabinet de travail.
Le triangle d'or
Maurice Leblanc
1915. Le capitaine Belval poursuit sa convalescence à Paris. Par le plus grand des hasards, il surprend une conversation. Il n'y a pas de doute, Coralie, la jeune et jolie infirmière que tous ceux qui sont passés par son ambulance adorent, est en danger. Elle est menacée d'enlèvement.
Aidé de ses camarades, Patrice Belval réussit à la sauver. Mais pourquoi la jeune femme, qu'ils appellent affectueusement « maman Coralie », ne veut-elle pas entendre parler de la police, ni même de la protection que lui propose le capitaine amoureux d'elle depuis le premier jour où elle l'a soigné ? Elle lui défend de la revoir.
De nombreux indices prouvent à Patrice que le danger subsiste mais il passe outre l'interdiction et se retrouve au coeur d'une machination infernale.
De tous côtés des périls surgissent et, pour les conjurer, il faudrait à Belval l'aide de quelqu'un d'exceptionnel. Arsène Lupin en somme. Or Lupin est mort : il s'est jeté dans la mer du haut d'un rocher. Mais sait-on jamais avec ce diable d'homme ?

Arsène Lupin, the eccentric gentleman who operates only in the chateaux and salons, and who, one night, entered the residence of Baron Schormann, but emerged empty-handed, leaving, however, his card on which he had scribbled these words: “Arsène Lupin, gentleman-burglar, will return when the furniture is genuine.” Arsène Lupin, the man of a thousand disguises: in turn a chauffeur, detective, bookmaker, Russian physician, Spanish bull-fighter, commercial traveler, robust youth, or decrepit old man...

"Arsène Lupin! I am glad that at last a lucky chance has brought me into touch with that scoundrel again! I'll show the fellow the stuff I'm made of!... And this time it's a murder!... It's a fight between you and me now, Master Lupin!"
M. Formerie had not forgotten the strange adventure of the Princesse de Lamballe's diadem, nor the wonderful way in which Lupin had tricked him a few years before. The thing had remained famous in the annals of the law-courts. People still laughed at it; and in M. Formerie it had left a just feeling of resentment, combined with the longing for a striking revenge.
"The nature of the crime is self-evident," he declared, with a great air of conviction, "and we shall have no difficulty in discovering the motive. So all is well... M. Lenormand, how do you do?... I am delighted to see you...”
M. Formerie was not in the least delighted. On the contrary, M. Lenormand's presence did not please him at all, seeing that the chief detective hardly took the trouble to disguise the contempt in which he held him. However, the magistrate drew himself up and, in his most solemn
"So, doctor, you consider that death took place about a dozen hours ago, perhaps more!... That, in fact, was my own idea... We are quite agreed... And the instrument of the crime?"
"A knife with a very thin blade, Monsieur le Juge d'Instruction," replied the surgeon. "Look, the blade has been wiped on the dead man's own handkerchief...”

"And I have the original letter here, among the documents forwarded by Don Luis Perenna to the Prefect of Police. Do you, Major, recognize Private Perenna, who fought under your orders in the Foreign Legion?"
"I recognize him," said Comte d'Astrignac.
"Beyond the possibility of a mistake?"
"Beyond the possibility of a mistake and without the least feeling of hesitation."
The Prefect of Police, with a laugh,
"You recognize Private Perenna, whom the men, carried away by a sort of astounded admiration of his exploits, used to call Arsène Lupin?"
"Yes, Monsieur le Préfet," replied the major sharply, "the one whom the men called Arsène Lupin, but whom the officers called simply the Hero, the one who we used to say was as brave as d'Artagnan, as strong as Porthos...."
"And as mysterious as Monte Cristo," said the Prefect of Police, laughing. "I have all this in the report which I received from the Fourth Regiment of the Foreign Legion. It is not necessary to read the whole of it; but it contains the unprecedented fact that Private Perenna, in the space of two years' time, received the military medal, received the Legion of Honour for exceptional services, and was mentioned fourteen times in dispatches. I will pick out a detail here and there."
"Monsieur le Préfet, I beg of you," protested Don Luis. "These are trivial matters, of no interest to anybody; and I do not see the reason...."
"There is every reason, on the contrary," declared M. Desmalions. "You gentlemen are here not only to hear a will read, but also to authorize its execution as regards the only one of its clauses that is to be carried out at once, the payment of a legacy of a million francs…

The Eight Strokes of the Clock
The Secret Tomb
Here’s an excerpt from the novel The Secret of Sarek
Vorski raised his head. A man was standing in front of him, leaning against one of the uprights of the dolmen. The man was of the average height, with a slender, well-built figure, and seemed to be still young, notwithstanding his hair, which was turning grey at the temples. He wore a blue-serge jacket with brass buttons and a yachting-cap with a black peak.
"Don't trouble to rack your brains," he said. "You don't know me. Let me introduce Don Luis Perenna, grandee of Spain, a noble of many countries and Prince of Sarek. Yes, don't be I've taken the title of Prince of Sarek, having a certain right to it."
Vorski looked at him without understanding. The man
"You don't seem very familiar with the Spanish nobility. Still, just test your I am the gentleman who was to come to the rescue of the d'Hergemont family and the people of Sarek, the one whom your son François was expecting with such simple faith.... Well, are you there?... Look, your companion, the trusty Otto, he seems to remember!... But perhaps my other name will convey more to you? It is well and favourably known. Lupin.... Arsène Lupin....”
Vorski watched him with increasing terror and with a misgiving which became more accentuated at each word and movement of this new adversary. Though he recognized neither the man nor the man's voice, he felt himself dominated by a will of which he had already felt the power and lashed by the same sort of implacable irony. But was it possible?

The Confessions of Arsène Lupin
Maurice Leblanc
The Confessions of Arsène Lupin (1913) is a collection of short stories by Maurice Leblanc. Blending crime fiction, fantasy, and mystery, Leblanc crafts original and entertaining tales of adventure starring one of the greatest literary characters of all time--Arsène Lupin, gentleman thief. Partly based on the life of French anarchist Marius Jacob, Lupin first appeared in print in 1905 as an answer to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's Sherlock Holmes.
Arsène Lupin is the world's greatest thief, an unmatched force for good whose exploits threaten the wealth and standing of France's most wicked men. In this installment of Leblanc's beloved series, Lupin uses his remarkable wit and chameleon-like ability to move undetected through aristocratic society in order to steal, trick, and cheat his way through life. Despite his criminal nature, he operates under a strict moral code, only taking from those who have taken from the poor all their lives. When Baron Repstein, a powerful businessman, has his fortune stolen by a faithless wife, Arsène Lupin casts doubt on his tale of betrayal. Securing a deathbed confession via code from the Baron's closest associate, Lupin makes his way to Repstein's home, where he introduces himself and proceeds to reveal the shocking truth. Other stories in the collection include The wedding-ring, The red silk scarf and A Tragedy in the Forest of Morgues. The Confessions of Arsène Lupin contains tales of romance, mystery, and crime that continue to astound over a century after they were published.
With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Maurice Leblanc's The Confessions of Arsène Lupin is a classic of French literature reimagined for modern readers.
The Eight Strokes of the Clock (Arsène Lupin, #11)
Maurice Leblanc
With wit and daring, a master thief battles cops, crooks, and killers
In Paris, six women have vanished, only to be found a week later, emaciated and disfigured, their skulls split open. What little evidence the police have suggests that the murderer is a woman and that she is preparing to strike again.
When Prince Rénine’s lover disappears on a cold night in October, he fears that she is about to become the latest victim. Most noblemen would be helpless to rescue her before the hatchet falls, but Rénine is an alias of Arsène Lupin, the world’s greatest thief, and he will stop at nothing to catch the killer.
Fearsome creatures may lurk in the back alleys of Paris, but none is as dangerous, or as brilliant, as Arsène Lupin.

The Extraordinary Adventures of Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Burglar
Maurice Leblanc
It was a strange ending to a voyage that had commenced in a most auspicious manner. The transatlantic steamship La Provence' was a swift and comfortable vessel, under the command of a most affable man. The passengers constituted a select and delightful society. The charm of new acquaintances and improvised amusements served to make the time pass agreeably. We enjoyed the pleasant sensation of being separated from the world, living, as it were, upon an unknown island, and consequently obliged to be sociable with each other.
