Picking up 20 years after Pride and Prejudice left off, Mr. Darcy's Daughters begins in the year 1818. Elizabeth and Darcy have gone to Constantinople, giving us an opportunity to get to know their five daughters, who have left the sheltered surroundings of Pemberley for a few months in London. While the eldest, Letitia, frets and the youngest, Alethea, practices her music, twins Georgina and Belle flirt and frolic their way through parties and balls and Camilla - levelheaded and independent - discovers what joys and sorrows the city has to offer an intelligent young woman.

Listeners will delight in the return of such beloved Austen creations as Elizabeth's old nemesis Caroline Bingley (now Lady Warren), the ever-reliable Gardiners, and wayward Aunt Lydia. Charming, beautifully written, and full of societal intrigue and romantic high jinks, Mr. Darcy's Daughters is a tale that would please Austen herself.

The hair raising exploits of Fitzwilliam and Elizabeth's teenaged daughters in London free of their parents' care make for great fun and lots of fodder for gossips. We meet older versions of Caroline Bingley and Lydia Bennet who add to the fun.

The trouble with teenaged girls

While the similarities to pride and prejudice are nothing less than overwhelming, this book is well worth the journey, and more adventurous than Austen would dared. It feels true to form, and the characters are vividly drawn. This was fun.

With or without the formula, it's a good read.

Enjoyable enough but I feel slightly scammed because of "Darcy" in the title. Darcy and Elizabeth are conveniently off scene in Constantinople and the five sisters just romp through London. It is hard to imagine how Darcy and Elizabeth could possibly have raised the 3rd and 4th daughters to be as completely thoughtless of others as these two are. They absolutely "do not care" what happens to any of their sisters or the reputations of any relatives as long as they are momentarily having fun. Fitzwilliam is invoked as the girls' guardian but his character is completely made over to be a stuffy idiot. Lydia is brought in as a villainous aunt but now she is subtle and clever, which is also not believable. Nevertheless the story is well told, and very well narrated. There are plenty of twists and surprises and a happy ending.

Basic romance with "Darcy" in the title

[SPOILERS] This book's portrayal of Darcy's daughters is completely wrong - from their lower status, lack of high connections, worn country clothing like poor country bumpkins, to their poor manners and behaviors. The book attempts to explain all these away by saying that they spent most of their life in the country with little time in London. However, they lived at Pemberly, not a lowly cottage, so they would have been trained properly and fitted up according to their station. Unrealistic... If you forget all connections to Pride & Prejudice, you miight enjoy this book as a typical period romance novel.

Not a P&P Sequel

I enjoyed this book more as a part of the series than for itself. Narration was good even if some of the voices were a little shrill, thus... annoying. The Narrator did change their voice for almost every character which helped to keep things straight. I appreciate this Author's attempt at continuing Austin's classic more than most. But be aware the style is less subtle and more descriptive.

Jane's story extended

The narration is truly bad. While she has a pleasant enough voice, the timing, the inflections, leave a LOT to be desired. There are spots where she employs a positively shrill screech that set my teeth on edge. The story itself...meh.... Miss Aston is NO Miss Austen. Make no mistake. The characters are thin, weakly fleshed out and vapid. I got the book for free, and I’d say that was just about my money’s worth.

Mediocre at best

i love Pride and Prejudice so I just didn"t think any other writer could hold their own. This author did. Excellent narrator too!

Great

The narrator made this book very pleasant to listen to. I mostly enjoyed the story. I didn't think it was necessary to include Caroline Bingley Warren's stepson, a plot thread that went nowhere. And in the original Pride and Prejudice, there's an explanation for the younger daughters' wild behavior (neglectful parenting and a too-young chaperone). There are no such explanations here, and I have a hard time buying the behavior of the youngest three girls if they'd been brought up by Darcy and Elizabeth, without more explanation from the author.

Pleasant Austen Fanfic
