About this listen

How would the story of Pride and Prejudice be altered if Mr. Wickham had been a good man?

Instead of becoming a scoundrel who regularly attempts to elope with teenage girls, Mr. Wickham studies the law as he originally told Mr. Darcy when he gave up the value of the living. After finishing his studies, Mr. Wickham finds work in Meryton with Mr. Phillips, a local solicitor and the Bennets's uncle.

By the time that the Netherfield party arrives, the Bennets are well-acquainted with Mr. Wickham. He is even engaged to one of the Bennets! How will this altered Wickham influence the rest of the characters and their road to happily ever after? Will Darcy still look down on the Bennets and their connections, even if one of those connections is his childhood best friend?

A very sweet what if story

This story allowed some characters we don't normally see come out of their reserve, blossom into their full potential. I really enjoyed this book. I recommend it if you want an easy listen.

Character inversion

This was a nice story with a good Wickham. Darcy and Elizabeth as friends. Lady Catherine was EXTREMELY EVIL.

My rare poor review of P&P titles with either a good author or narrator.

Felt like I was reading a narrative.

Given all readers of such a book know the Darcy/Elizabeth part, we could have used some mystery, anxiety, or other signs of uncertainty. Feelings are described without emotion, especially for Elizabeth.

The other couples’ formations (Mary, Kitty, and Lydia) were simply reported, despite the idea that each formation would likely face much difficulty.
