Warleggan

A Novel of Cornwall, 1792-1793

By: Winston Graham

Narrated by: Oliver J. Hembrough

When Ross Poldark plunges into a highly speculative mining venture, he risks not only his family's financial security but also his already turbulent marriage. When his old flame, Elizabeth Warleggan, reenters his life, Ross is tested like never before. But soon his wife, Demelza, retaliates, becoming dangerously involved with a handsome Scottish cavalry officer of her own.

With the looming threat of bankruptcy and scandal, the Poldarks now face the possibility of disaster on all fronts. Will they be able to keep it together before everything falls apart?

A tale of romance, revenge, and risk, Warleggan brings you characters and rivalries you won't soon forget.

Another very well written book by W Graham. Looking forward to listen to the next book in the serie.

A Marvelous Story

Marvelous Story Line, wonderful word crafting and description, excellent narration, eagerly awaiting next book.

Great entertainment!!

I really enjoyed the story, enlightened by historical events and how well twisted and turned into this love story!

Characters keep growing with each novel!

Love these characters and how they continue to grow in age, wisdom, and mistakes as we all do!

A vibrant segment of the Cornwall series

As predictable as the story could be, the skips & pivots of these imperfect characters will guarantee that I'll continue reading on. The scenery is also so well detailed, that I wish it were a true landscape to plan my own journey there some day.
