Great Story!
Pirates and Prejudice was a delightful, pirate-y take on the adventures of our favorite couple. Starting shortly after the proposal debacle at Rosings, this book places Darcy in rough shape on the docks of London. Hes let himself go and has sunk into the worst mood. Its definitely not the normal arrogant, pride-filled gentleman were used to. When hes forced into for the crown piracy, we get to see our hero transformed into an ARGGH!-saying, sword wielding, tough guy.
Elizabeth on the other hand has taken a trip with Mr. Bennett to see his ailing sister in the Isles of Sicily. While visiting family, Elizabeth becomes acquainted with her cousins Melanie and David. Everyone in the family thinks David is a fine catch for Elizabeth and she begins to think so too. But can Davids pleasantness take place of Darcys irksome place in Elizabeths heart? Before either of them can find out, Elizabeth is kidnapped by pirates and the real fun begins!
I adored Darcy in this. Even though he had to go against a lot of his normal instincts, being pushed outside of his comfort level was fun to watch. Some of my favorite parts involved Darcy learning to talk and act like a pirate.
One of my favorite side characters is Mr. Bennett and we get to see a lot of him here. My favorite new character is a pirate named Bellows. Even the evil enemy Lockerly is fun to watch. Jane, Bingley, Georgianna and the rest of the Bennetts are seen as well, with cameos by Wickham, Miss Bingley and the dreaded Lady Catherine.
During the pirate kidnapping scenes there were several enjoyable moments Ill not disclose to ruin your fun, but be assured, you will enjoy this book.
This is a must read for any Austen fan and another gem in Karas crown as queen of Austen Variations.
Tiffany has a calm, but intriguing voice that will truly bring the book alive. Although she is a woman and does all the voices in the book (even the men), she has a great grasp of accents and its quite enjoyable.
Captivating Tale, Awesome Naration
The story was such a fun take on Pride and Prejudice. I really enjoyed the twists and turns presented by the author. The naration was perfect! The reader's many voices for characters were spot-on and added an extra dimension to the story which made it so much better than reading it to myself!
Great
I really enjoyed this book. I wish that Audible had more books by Kara Louise available.
