The Gossip War

A Pride and Prejudice Short

By: Wade H Mann

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Who knows what damage gossip can do?

Twelve hours after sitting a half-hour in the library with Mr Darcy, Elizabeth Bennet encounters the gentleman, again along with her sister Jane and others, in the corridors of Netherfield Park. The meeting demonstrates that no all is as it seems and nearly everyone’s character now becomes open to question.

What will they learn, and how will it affect their lives? In a war of gossip, who will be victor and who vanquished. Will our ladies end up carrying their shields or on them.

Let’s find out.

Note: This is a short low-angst, happy romance story of 30,000 words—part of my Quick Reads series.

Entertaining

This was a pretty fun story. It is a Bad Bingleys/Hursts trope. I'm not usually keen on Charles being written as a bad guy but I didn't mind as much with this one. It is also a fake engagement trope. And I love that one. Darcy and Elizabeth are forced to use stratagem and I just loved the whole of that. Mrs. Bennet was awesome and the family ended up in a better situation too. The story had interesting interpretations of events and characters. I found it very enjoyable.

The virtual voice wasn't the best but I still loved the story.

So Good!

Who you thought were good are so bad. Who you thought were bad are good or sorta good. And revenge is very sweet. A great story. Would listen to again.

A rump with a Clever Lizzy

This was a lot of fun to read and listen to. I dislike the virtual voice, but the book made up for that by being thoroughly entertaining.
Giving me a strong and clever female lead, a Jane with more backbone, and even showing Mrs. Bennett at her best, are all tropes that I will never tire of encountering.
Highly recommend!

Nice one.

I adore yours mater of fact story's! Always very intelligent Elizabeth. And in this one, love mrs. Bennet
