About this listen
What will happen to the Bennet females now that Mr. Bennet has died? With Mr. Tristan Collins on his way from America to claim his property, Mrs. Bennet hatches her plan. The new heir to Longbourn simply must marry one of her daughters. Nothing else will do. Will it be Mary or Kitty singled out for this dubious honor? When the gentleman in question turns out to be quite a catch after all, the contest between the sisters is on. Which one will be the next mistress of Longbourn? Or will a dark horse step in to muddy the picture? Darcy, Elizabeth, and the rest of the Pride and Prejudice cast are back as the socially awkward Mary emerges from the shadows to take center stage in Shannon Winslow's long-awaited sequel to her best-selling novel, The Darcys of Pemberley; Many Austen fans have a soft spot in their hearts for Mary and wonder if she might have the hidden makings of a heroine. Now, in .Return to Longbourn, we learn what really makes her tick. Is she destined to be a governess forever, or will she overcome the misfortune of being 'plain' to find love and her own happy ending? on his way from America to claim his property, Mrs. Bennet hatches her plan.

A Fascinating Sequel
I enjoyed listening to this story having often wondered about what might happen to Mary. I found the American expressions horrifying (e.g. ‘pled’ ‘the fall’ for autumn) they grated on my ears but it was an easy listen.

A satisfactory conclusion
I have really enjoyed this sequel. It gave a positive and deserving conclusion to our Bennet sisters and their mother.

Finally Mary Bennet has her happy ending
I really liked this sequel that focuses on Mary Bennet, which is quite "neglected" in Pride and prejudice and seems to be the least fortunate sister. A pleasant read for all Austen's fans.

Love!
Pride and Prejudice is one of my favourite novels. So much so I didn’t want the story to end so took the plunge, bought the audio book and ended up loving it. Only slight criticism is that it goes into a bit too much detail in the bedroom to be entirely consistent of Austen’s style but none the less I’m really glad I read it and couldn’t stop listening! Definitely recommend.

Delightful
Mary's story is just perfect and quite different from that of her sisters. Her chosen husband is certainly no pushover. Excellent narration.

Wonderful. Does Jane Austen proud
Excellent narrator. Lizzie Darcy especially sounds like Jennifer Ehle's performance of the 1994 tv series. Great writer wish there were more in this series. If you love Pride and Prejudice you'll love this too!! Just one criticism. In England we don't have 'Fall' we have 'Autumn"
