I much prefer the sharpest criticism of a single intelligent man to the thoughtless approval of the masses. ELIZABETH BENNET is determined that she will put a stop to her mother’s plans to marry off the eldest Bennet daughter to Mr. Collins, the Longbourn heir, but a man that Mr. Bennet considers an annoying dimwit. Hence, Elizabeth disguises herself as Jane and repeats her vows to the supercilious rector as if she is her sister, thereby voiding the nuptials and saving Jane from a life of drudgery. Yet, even the “best laid plans” can often go awry. FITZWILLIAM DARCY is desperate to ...

Horrible narration
I don’t expect much from virtual voice narration, but this was horrible with repeated words and phrases and stuttering throughout.
Story was good though

Wonderful
Lately I have been listening to a lot of Ms. Schertz's books from the Plus Catalog. Some of them were not so good, some are pretty good, and this one was wonderful. If it had been performed by a talented artist, it would have been even more amazing. The Virtual Voice glitches at the beginning of each chapter are very aggravating and also it is sometimes difficult to know whom is speaking due to the monotone narration. Even with the drawbacks of Virtual Voice this book is excellent from beginning to end. It is not rushed, yet does not contain extraneous details or episodes.
Elizabeth is coerced into marrying Rev Collins in order to save her family from being "tossed into the hedge rows" after terminally ill Mr. Bennett leaves this world. Thankfully, just after the wedding, and before the marriage is consummated, Collins dies in a carriage accident on their way home to the Parsonage in Kent. Unfortunately Elizabeth is severely injured. Mr Darcy is devastated when he arrives in Kent and finds out that Elizabeth is almost dead. He is beside her bed constantly to help nurse her. Things really crank up as all the characters we love and hate make appearances in the story. Mrs. Bennett, Lady Catherine and Wickham are absolute evil people!
The plot moves swiftly and kept me soundly hooked until the end. I was thrilled that the worst of the characters were justly punished for their actions. There is angst, but the author does not make the listener suffer for extended periods of time. I really loved this book and highly recommend it, particularly to Jane Austen lovers.

This was a pretty good story with mostly redeemed characters. overall it would have been a 4.5 for the story itself.
I strongly disliked the pauses and stutters in the AI storyteller. her voice was very nice and somewhat soothing, but there were repetitions that were needed and confusing, A lot of times there were also context that artificial intelligence would not be able to understand and so where the pauses and such were placed cause confusion.

Outstanding
One of the best P&P vagaries I have read. I would love for a voice actor to read it as it’s very well written and different from the other hundreds I have read in this genre. I loved it. It was nice to see those who deserved reproof got it and from the characters you wouldn’t suspect. Great work! I look forward to other books by this author.

Title was perfect
I enjoyed the flow of the story. However the reader kept hesitating. Overall I enjoyed it very much.
