Don Juan McQueen

Florida Trilogy, Book 2

By: Eugenia Price

Narrated by: Shelly Weingart

Bestselling author Eugenia Price captures the drama, the glory, and the pure emotion of Southern life and love with perfection in Don Juan McQueen.

A powerful novel by Eugenia Price, Don Juan McQueen tells the story of John McQueen, an American patriot and friend of Washington and Jefferson, who finds himself bankrupt and forced to flee to Spanish East Florida to escape imprisonment. Anne, his beautiful wife, and children remain in Savannah, Georgia, as he obtains a new identity—Don Juan McQueen, confidante to the Spanish governor. The more he adapts to his new home, the more quickly he falls from the graces of Anne, and their children are trapped between them.

Filled with action and drama, this sequel to Maria reveals a unique period in history as the characters struggle with religion, Spanish influence, and America’s quest for expansion and recognition.

Spectacular

Great book very well done. I like the storyline and the narrator does a great job. Very easy to get into. You will get caught on from beginning to end.

An Engaging Historical Tale

Don Juan McQueen is an epic, historically rich story with well-developed characters that fully drew me in. I genuinely enjoyed the narrative and its depth. The narration itself was nicely done, but unfortunately the audio quality was below par, which noticeably detracted from the overall listening experience.

I’d rate the story 3.5/5, the narrator’s performance (separate from sound quality) 3.5/5, and the overall audiobook a 3/5 due to the production issues.
