This title uses virtual voice narration

Virtual voice is computer-generated narration for audiobooks.
I much prefer the sharp criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses. - Johannes Kepler When she arrives at Hunsford Cottage for a visit with her long-time friend Charlotte Collins, Elizabeth Bennet does not expect the melodrama awaiting her at Rosings Park. Mrs. Anne Darcy, nee de Bourgh, has passed, and Rosings Park is, by law, the property of the woman’s husband, Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy; yet, Lady Catherine de Bourgh is not ready to abandon the mansion over which she has served as mistress for thirty years. Elizabeth holds sympathy for her ladyship’s situation. After all, Elizabeth’s mother will eventually be banished from Longbourn when Mr. Bennet passes without male issue. She inherently understands Lady Catherine’s “hysterics,” while not necessarily condoning them, for her ladyship will have the luxury of the right to the estate’s dower house, and, moreover, it is obvious Rosings Park requires the hand of a more knowledgeable overseer. Therefore, Elizabeth takes on the task of easing Lady Catherine’s transition to dowager baronetess, but doing so places Elizabeth often in the company of the “odious” Mr. Darcy, a man Lady Catherine claims poisoned her daughter Anne in order to claim Rosings Park as his own.

If you’re looking for a new twist on the canon characters from P&P, this story is worth a look. What’s so nice is how it’s an entirely different plot. The personalities are true to canon, but we get a new storyline.

Yes. It’s narrated by VV. You’ll get used to it, just have the speed on 1.2 or maybe faster. But, I couldn’t give 5 stars for VV when there are other narrators who depend on the stars.

The story though, it’s a really fresh adaptation.

Interesting Adaptation of P&P

Lady Katherine’s Will is diminished before our eyes. Darcy succumbed to rescue Anne, much too late finding the truth of her Mother’s care drugging her a lifetime to clinch Rosings for herself. Elizabeth by pure happenstance to the rescue of everyone involved. Certainly the typical misunderstandings, but in the end she becomes the rational thinker & love we all know. Bravo Regina Jeffers, she adores our fav characters as much as we the readers do…

Never mind the AI, becomes circumstantial the 1st inkling of beholding a special Variation we all desire…

This alternate telling of P&P was wonderful - but the AI narrator misspoke many older “Regency” terms, French words and gave odd pacing to several common phrases from the Austen era. It was quite distracting. However, the plot and character actions off-book were fascinating and entertaining.

Lovely re-imagining; poor narration

This was a really good and interesting story. To the point that I finally forgot about the virtual voice. I do find it a little bit easier to handle the voice when I play the book a bit faster.

So good I forgot about the horrible virtual voice
