Yes, the other two are worth reading (especially the second one), but they sadly only contain one of the characters in the main m/m couple. : (
But if you want to read more Broster, I also recommend Mr Rowl, which is about Raoul, a Napoleonic officer on parole in Britain; it has crossdressing and other Heyer-esque hijinks, and two different British officers obviously pining for Raoul. The endgame is het, though, but likeable het! Also The Wounded Name, which has ridiculously drawn-out hurt-comfort with two French royalists. Waterloo happens off-stage while the two main characters share a bed in a cave and exchange anguished confessions (because really, you have to focus on the important stuff). That one's hard to get hold of, but a fannish friend of mine is working on a Gutenberg ebook.
