Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy by Abigail Reynolds
Sourcebooks is also offering free downloads of their illustrated editions of Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Persuasion, Mansfield Park, Northanger Abbey, and Emma.
Strike while the iron is hot! I believe these titles are free for today ONLY so check your favorite ebook outlet.
I've been burned by Austen-world off-shoot novels before, so I never read any of these after my experience with Mr. Darcy's Daughters, etc., but I'm not turning up my nose at free books! I'll have them on my nook and when the inclination strikes, I'll be ready!
I found out about the sale via Laurel Ann's Austenprose posting :)
Thanks for the shoutout Melissa. Of the ten books that your downloaded, I would recommend The Other Mr. Darcy, or Mr. Darcy's Diary as your re-try in this genre. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Laurel Ann! :)
