Overall, it was a very good effort with respect to the original material, and for me, that is what mattered the most. View all 6 comments.

Jan 27, Laurie rated it did not like it Shelves: austenesque , mystery. Oh Lord, as Lydia might say.

Where to begin? Perhaps that is something that should never be repeated because this was horrifying. Here is why: 1. I seriously can't imagine that any but a tiny fraction of the realistic audience for this book isn't familiar enough with the story for this to be unnecessary.

The author makes a few changes to Austen canon which in itself is not a problem if done well and for a reasonable purpose.

Two of these changes what "ends up happening" to Mary and Kitty are merely inexplicable, because Mary and Kitty do not figure in the plot at all, so really, why bother?

And the other is basically unforgivable. This order of events is significant in shaping the characters of Darcy, Wickham and Georgiana who then commit the acts which drive the plot.

If the parental death order were reversed, as James has it, their characters may have developed very differently and so would everything else!

Can you really imagine Lady Anne continuing to spoil her husband's pet George Wickham even after his death? James never deals with the implications of this at all.

I mean, really! Yet that is what readers of this will get. However b the device of explaining and analyzing all of that history here, while it could be interesting, c is not and d makes no sense because the person who is purportedly ignorant about so much of the procedure, Darcy, is a magistrate and supposedly a very intelligent, well-read, well-informed person so why would he constantly need everything explained to him?

Just from a general writing perspective: way too much telling, not at all enough showing. The mystery ends up being totally disappointing. Half of it is telegraphed from the beginning and the other half is relatively un-deducible.

BUT NO. The best comic characters Mrs. Bennet, Lady Catherine, Mr. Collins make appearances only by letter. Fortunately it only took me a day and a half to read this so I spent almost as long composing this rant as I did cringing through the book.

I can't say that I recommend this to anyone but it would be nice if someone else I know would read it so I can complain about it cathartically.

Nov 29, Kristen rated it it was ok. Heard about this book on NPR today. Sounds like a great read--Jane Austen and a murder mystery all wrapped up in one!

Ok, now it's several months later and I've had the opportunity to read the book. It was tolerable, I suppose, for a read at the beach.

But I admit it failed to live up to the expectations of an Austen novel or a good murder mystery. I think we ca Heard about this book on NPR today.

I think we can understand their motivations well enough, or at least accept their imperfections, such that we don't require further explanations.

And as for the mystery, I was disappointed at the lack of active mystery solving undertaken by the characters.

The truth eventually unfolds, due to the late presentation of evidence from individuals involved, but no one seemed interested in seeking out the truth.

I would have liked to see Darcy dig deep to find his inner Sherlock Holmes and be the one to solve the mystery. When I won an advance copy of this book on Goodreads I was thrilled.

Perhaps I approached the story with expectations too high. I wanted so much to like it, but the more I read the more disappointed I became.

The prose is very well-written and somewhat in the Austen manner, but without the subtle wit. What I found tiresome was the story-telling.

The first word of dialogue is not spoken for many, many pages and much of the dialogue is actually a series of lengthy monologues that sound more like n When I won an advance copy of this book on Goodreads I was thrilled.

The first word of dialogue is not spoken for many, many pages and much of the dialogue is actually a series of lengthy monologues that sound more like narrative.

Passages of action are often repeated almost word for word when one character tells another what happened or testimony is recounted at the inquest and trial.

There seemed to be so little at stake and no one except the police made any effort to sort out the mystery. In the end it only comes to light when the perpetrator confesses.

The last fifty pages are characters explanations of how the murder came about and why they went to such lengths to cover it up. I struggled through to the end hoping it would get better, but it never did.

One of my favorite mystery writers meets one of my favorite stories; it's gotta be good, right? And it is good. But it's not great, and I was hoping for great.

I shy away from a lot of the Pride and Prejudice follow ons--fan fiction legitimized by a publisher, and sometimes not nearly as good as amateur fan fiction.

But this I was eager to read. And I will say, it held my interest. James does a good job of capturing the spirit and even language of Austen, not per I'm really torn about this book.

James does a good job of capturing the spirit and even language of Austen, not perfectly, but definitely nothing to cringe at.

But there were missteps, in my opinion. First, too much time and ink was spent essentially retelling the story of Pride and Prejudice and not enough time building on it.

There were long passages throughout the book that just recapped the original story. That's why we picked this up to begin with.

Trust your readers a bit. And if they haven't read it, give them an excuse to, instead of just giving them a recap so they don't have to.

Unfortunately, retelling the original was not the only time James strayed from the "show, don't tell" rule. There was also a lot of exposition done through long monologues by different characters.

Indeed, the mystery itself was weak and not very satisfying--which pains me to say because this is P.

James after all. Finally, and perhaps most disappointing of all, there simply wasn't enough interaction between Elizabeth and Darcy. They seemed to be each pursuing different activities through most of the book.

I wanted them to be less intellect and more passion. But here again it was told, not shown. Maybe I expected too much; maybe it's an impossible task to try to capture characters who are in many was so deeply personal to their fans.

This was James' vision, not mine. Still, I did enjoy the book. So if you're an Austen fan or a P. James fan, don't miss it. Teatime I completely agree with this review-- lots of 'telling' and not enough interaction between Darcy and Elizabeth!

Also a weak mystery that is too easily I completely agree with this review-- lots of 'telling' and not enough interaction between Darcy and Elizabeth!

Also a weak mystery that is too easily solved by a confession in the twelfth hour I love James and Austen and I appreciate James' effort But as was noted in another review, I bought the book, but alas, should have waited for my library copy!

Dec 01, Anmiryam rated it it was ok. It is a truth universally acknowledged that a good writer attempting to emulate a great writer will invariably fail.

Even if that good writer is considered to be the doyenne of her genre, readers seeking the focused wit and social observation of the original creator will close her book frustrated, especially if many reviewers extoll the sequel's virtues as entertainment and fitting homage.

A few brief passages sparkle with the reflected brilliance of Austen and most of them have been extensively It is a truth universally acknowledged that a good writer attempting to emulate a great writer will invariably fail.

A few brief passages sparkle with the reflected brilliance of Austen and most of them have been extensively quoted in reviews.

If you are looking for the good lines, read those and forget the book. If however, you wish to be entertained for several hours, James, crafts an enjoyable if predictable mystery.

Her style is far more descriptive of the environment of Pemberley and unlike Austen, she neglects to reveal character through dialogue and interaction, but relies solely on reflection.

Most disappointingly, perhaps because of her own preferences for central male characters, James exerts virtually all of her energy on expanding on Mr.

Darcy's character instead of allowing Elizabeth to remain front and center. Her motherly Elizabeth bears no resemblance to the intelligent and appealingly flawed center of Pride and Prejudice.

It's as if James believes that marriage and motherhood are truly the end of the line for women and the assumption of these roles consign them forever banal characterizations as Madonnas Elizabeth, Jane or Medusas Lady Catherine, Mrs.

Bennet, Lydia. I expected better. View 2 comments. This book was absolutely delightful. Perhaps not to an Austen purist, of course.

But as a PD James fan and an Austen fan, this was a fantastic read. Authors note: I owe an apology to the shade of Jane Austen for involving her beloved Elizabeth in the trauma of a murder investigation, especially as in the final chapter of Mansfield Park Miss Austen made her views quite plain; 'Let other pens dwell on the guilt and misery.

I quit such odious subjects as soon as i can, impatient to restore everybody not greatly in fault themselves to tolerable comfort, and to have done with all the rest.

D James I love love love this. Makes me want to read it even more. Unfortunatley, as much as i wanted to love this, it was a little bit too menacing for me.

I felt there wasn't enough of the quirky Humorous feeling i loved about pride and prejudice. Oct 09, Sherwood Smith added it Shelves: disappointments-or-just-set-aside.

I hate to mark it 'read' as I did not finish it. I found it painful to read--so many errors in period, errors in tone, errors in characterization, humorless and altogether so disappointing I wish I had not spent money on it.

Two stars might seem to put me firmly in the pro-life camp, but two stars is OK. It was OK. I expected a refreshing swill round the mouth, a palate-cleanser for between the heavy tomes.

What I got was leaden in places; the glaringly obvious devices to get the exposition out of the way - "Tell me again how you met him The story, yes, well, all in all it dragged a bit, and the solution was convoluted.

But it served its purpose: I'm ready to go back to the real MacKay. Apr 04, Mandy rated it did not like it Recommends it for: insomniacs, people who don't really like themselves.

I have never had any interest in the Jane Austen spin-off industry. Too bad. Now I know that PD James possesses neither wit nor humor.

Not that I ever would have condemned her for lacking such traits. I always held her in high esteem--Devices and Desires is o I have never had any interest in the Jane Austen spin-off industry.

I always held her in high esteem--Devices and Desires is one of my all time favorite reading experiences. Just the names alone took me back to my first reading of Pride and Prejudice and better yet the superior BBC miniseries way back in the 80s.

Then, the genius idea of killing off Wickham—so deserving of a mysterious death. The list of suspects with grievances is enough to weave an excellent whodunit.

Okay, what fun! Who is dead? Wait, who was he again? Yes it is. For the majority of this novel, we are expected to read and reread and read again the same account of that one evening, which was aptly explained the first time, and was not so many pages back that I really need to keep re-reading it.

I am perfectly capable of following along and there is very little chance that I am going to forget the only tiny bit of action that happened in this book to begin with.

Repetitive, repetitive, repetitive. Does PD James and her editor vacation and spend the holidays together? Because there were serious problems with the writing and pace here that were ignored and that might be the biggest mystery about this book.

I would really like to know what goes on in those publishing houses when dreck like this shows up but the author is a sacred cow.

Truly flawed as a mystery. Bad storytelling, badly paced. No misdirection, layers of suspects and or motives.

Not until the end of the book do we get an info-dump that explains why we read the first two hundred plus pages of repetitive text and the ending is just view spoiler [ wrong place wrong time?

Just horrible and sad. May 19, Rebecca McNutt rated it really liked it Shelves: crime , history , fiction , romance , mystery. A creative spin on historical crime fiction, this isn't my favourite of PD James' works but it still has an impressive style all its own.

View 1 comment. Feb 15, Verena rated it really liked it. A murder mystery by P. It is clear that James who claims a lifelong passion for Austen had great fun playing with the characters from Pride and Prejudice.

The identity of the murderer kept me guessing until all was revealed by means of a signed confession. This seems like a cop-out solution, but I have decided it would probably be the way Jane Austen would have ended a murder mystery, had she been inclined to write one.

For this diehard Austen reader, the happily-ever-after ending is the icing on a cake served at high tea. Nov 29, Sara rated it it was ok Shelves: mystery , pleasure-reading , aty-challenge.

I love Pride and Prejudice and I like P. It is only fair to say that I seldom come across a situation where a second author tries to expand on the canon of a former one with success.

I would pretty much ascribe to the theory that when the original author leaves his characters, their story is done, unless he decides to pick them up again.

Meanwhile we are all at liberty to imagine their further adventur I love Pride and Prejudice and I like P.

Meanwhile we are all at liberty to imagine their further adventures if we wish. A close friend of mine loved this novel and felt it completed Pride and Prejudice.

I was skeptical, after all Pride and Prejudice is complete and wonderful and almost sacred for me. But, I need a book whose title was a complete sentence for a challenge that needs finishing, and this one fit the bill.

I should always trust my better instincts. I could have better appreciated this novel if I could have imagined these as new characters, involved in their own story.

In fact, I did not find that these characters acted or spoke in the way I myself would have envisioned the Darcys and company at all.

The mystery was a little thin and the denouement a bit boring. James at her best and it was unnecessary because she has the ability to invent her own characters and worlds, as she has proved in her other fiction.

This is my third disappointing read in a row. Not something that generally happens to me. It makes me very tempted to pick up a book I have already read, and know that I love, just to remind myself that there is magic out there waiting somewhere.

While I was reading this, my rating kept bouncing back and forth between a three and a four star.

I am letting my rating land on the four star because the ending wrapped up quite excitingly and it was all tied together with a happy ending that I really enjoyed.

I feel as though this book deserves more appreciation and credit than what many reviews on GR express. I will admit, the middle of the book did get repetitive and dragged on for a while, but it didn't last forever.

Although I have never r While I was reading this, my rating kept bouncing back and forth between a three and a four star. Although I have never read any Jane Austen sequels to compare this too, nor have I ever read anything by P.

James, I have read several of Austen's novels. I think the characters we all love from Pride and Prejudice remain true to their personalities and it was a pleasure to see how the author showed us a glimpse into their lives six years after Darcy and Elizabeth marry.

While I may not be able to guarantee that you would enjoy this novel, I do feel it's not nearly as bad as what the ratings on GR says it to be.

Try it out when you are in the mood for a gentle mystery and feel like visiting the characters from Pride and Prejudice.

I am glad I did! Verified Purchase. I very much enjoyed this production and have watched it many, many times, so I finally decided to purchase it.

The cast is amazing and the storyline is engrossing, with a very dark edge to it. Although the portrayal of Lydia is very harsh, it works with the story.

I always thought of Lydia as a harmless, but goodhearted flirt. Matthew Goode is perfect as Wickham! Just as I've always pictured him and perfectly self-centered.

The story is successful at showing his flawed character, while keeping him human at the same time. They are delicious, written with the same Jane Austin spirit, but with great sex appeal added in for fun!

One person found this helpful. This is a great continuation of the Pride and Prejudice story. Now, I will be able to go straight through to this series to keep the Darcy and Elizabeth story going.

Highly recommended. I do not prescribe to additional stories based on JA novels. But for this I make an exception.

I enjoy the story line, acting, and the quality of filming. Read this book, Death at Pemberly and the movie version was near accurate to the book.

I found the actors skilled in their characters and the drama, mystery as enticing as the book. Equal in interest. Enjoyed very much.

Love the show. Broody, mystery, love What more could you ask for! Even my father-in-law liked it! More please! Matthew Rhys.

Oh,come on now. Welsh cutie. I just could not get into this show because of the actress who plays Elizabeth, supposedly the central character.

There's lots of clever 'dialogue' with the original and arch references to earlier productions it's the 95 Pemberley. What's not to like?

Can't wait for the next instalment, as Pemberley itself is challenged and their relationship is tested. I do hope the Bingleys, Caroline at least, turn up soon.

Of course, it isn't Austen. If it hurts to think that it is, then imagine it as a year prequel to Downton Abbey, 10 times better acted and 50 times better written.

Matthew Rhys. Oh,come on now. Welsh cutie. I just could not get into this show because of the actress who plays Elizabeth, supposedly the central character.

Elizabeth, as conceived by Austin, is a spirited, energetic person with a keen sense of humor. The actress who plays her in this show is an emotionless, dull pudding.

No spark in her, not even a flash of high spirits, just nothing. She completely fades into the background. If you didn't know she was supposed to be the main character, you wouldn't guess it because she is so subdued and bland.

The people playing smaller roles outact her in every scene. Even in a flashback to Elizabeth's younger days, the actress was soft-spoken, colorless, and drab.

The show was a total disappointment. I can't believe there are no actresses who could do this part justice.

The casting was dismal and the lines the writers gave Elizabeth didn't help. I could barely make it through the first show it was so awful.
