Acerca de esta escucha

“Mr Darcy, I am eager to hear your explanation for the fact that quite a few people believe we are engaged.”

It starts with a bit of well-meant advice. Colonel Fitzwilliam suggests to his cousin Darcy that, before he proposes to Elizabeth Bennet in Kent, perhaps he ought to discuss his plans with their families first.

What neither man could have predicted however was that Lord Matlock would write the news to his sister, or that Viscount Saye would overhear and tell his friends, or that his friends might slip a little and let their friends know as well. The news spreads just as quickly through Hertfordshire once Mrs Bennet opens the express Mr Bennet receives from Mr Darcy, and in a matter of days, it seems like everyone knows that Mr Darcy has proposed marriage to Elizabeth Bennet.

Everyone, that is, except Elizabeth herself.

Her refusal is quick and definite - until matters of reputation, hers as well as Jane’s, are considered. Then Mr Darcy makes another offer: summer at Pemberley so that Jane can be reunited with Mr Bingley and so that he can prove to Elizabeth he is not what she thinks of him. Falling in love with him is naturally impossible...but once she knows the man he truly is, will she be able to help herself?

Excellent Story and Audio Narration

Excellent: This is a wonderful story and narration of Pride and Prejudice Variations. The audio was beautifully performed; and, I particularly loved Lillian Rachel’s voice. To me she’s sounds a lot like Mary Talbot, that portrayed Lady Mary in the PBS Series “Downton Abbey.

Good Darcy & Elizabeth Scenes and then there is Lord Saye

Very good variation - Lord Saye has much to do with this. Good idea for a new way to put Elizabeth and Darcy at loggerheads, but I think this story would have been better if cut back some. Along with quite a few excellent dialogue scenes, there is a lot of unnecessary verbiage. Lillian Rachel does a very good job for both females and males.

Well written, very different

As much as I loved the concept of Darcy assuming Lizzy would say yes and just telling everyone before she did, I found that the whole Bingley plot was a bit much. While interesting and well written and made to be believable, it felt like there were two books happening at once. I really love this author’s other works, just this one was not for me. So without spoiling too much, be aware that Bingley goes down a dark path and it is quite odd.

Fantastic characterizations, Wonderful Variation

This book has all the classic P&P plot points, spun in a whole new way--and I've read a whole lot of variations. No simple retelling, we live the motivations through the eyes of Elizabeth and Darcy. As we live it, we understand the thoughts that brought them to their actions. The dialogue is clever, the plot is tight with enough twists and turns to keep me engaged. I found myself listening in every chance I had--finishing it in only a few days, and I was sorry when it ended. Not to put out any spoilers, but the retribution for Bingley was complete genius. I'm definitely looking for more from this author to feed my P&P addiction.

An absolute pleasure!!

This book was an instant favorite! I just finished listening and I had a smile on my face for the vast majority of the time it took to listen. I love this rendition of Pride and Prejudice. Darcy and Elizabeth were well written and engaging, they definitely had issues they need to sort out between them, but Amy did not allow the storyline to be overwrought with angst nor the characters too hard or implacable. That can be a common pitfall in some P&P variations and was very glad that was not the case. I adored the original character of Lord Saye, Darcy’s cousin and Richard’s older brother. He not only ties the story together, but he also steals the stage with every scene he is in and there were plenty of moments that had me giggling. You are in for a real treat if you give this book a listen and I will be eagerly checking out the wonderful author to see if there are other treasures to discover.

Very funny

This was a delightful story. I wish there were more stories with Saye since he is by far one of the best characters

Really good story.

Some angst. Bad Bingley. No Wickham. Interesting tale by Amy D’Orazio and well narrated by Lillian Rachel. I highly recommend this book to a Jane Austen fan fiction lover.

Pretty good

It was a good story. Yet, if you are a hardcore Pride and Prejudice fan, you would agree Jane is a bit out of character. Certain circumstances and other characters are quite against the canon. I love that this book also deals with Viscount Saye, as he is such a comical, haughty, and fun character. Is it in my top five Pride and Prejudice variations? No, but it was pretty good. The narrator felt a bit flat.

Darcy’s Family Take Center Stage

The Bennet Family, after the first chapter or so, play a much smaller role in this telling. The Matlock branch of Darcy’s family do a great deal of meddling and Lord Saye, the elder son, Colonel Fitzwilliam’s brother, steals the stage in every scene he is in with hilarious results. Occasionally, he even drags Darcy and Richard into his off beat brand of wit although usually they scold him. One particularly funny episode is somewhere in the middle of the book when Lord Saye drags Darcy into a discussion as to whether or not Lizzy may have noticed Darcy’s derrière, a la Rob Reiner and Tom Hanks on the sidewalk in “Sleepless in Seattle”. And when Lord Saye and Mrs. Bennet are together…….oh my!

Highly enjoyable version with some interesting twists and turns. Be prepared to not like Mr. Bingley in this one.

Not G rated not but PG-13 either, somewhere in between with some very vague references.
