The Plight of the Darcy Brothers – Book Review
by Marsha Altman
I hope for the sake of all Austen fans that Marsha Altman never puts down her pen. She has delivered another beauty in The Plight of the Darcy Brothers, the follow up to The Darcys and The Bingleys.
It seems that rescuing Bennet girls is becoming an occupation for Fitzwilliam Darcy. Despite some personal tragedy in his and Elizabeth’s lives, they feel compelled to aid Miss Mary Bennet, recently and abruptly returned from the Continent. Their trip to Italy, brings distraction from their sorrow over failed pregnancies, allows Darcy to uncover secrets long hidden by his late father, and restores some dignity to Mary Bennet.
Darcy’s life and family will be forever changed by his undertaking to help the 3rd Bennet sister.
Marsha Altman has such a talent for writing Austen inspired works. Her faithful representation of the era proves her knowledge of it must be extensive. The characters (both hers and Austen’s) are wonderful and thoroughly convincing. With her lovely writing style and witty humour, reading her books is one of the easiest, most enjoyable things you’ll ever do.
Thank you Marsha Altman.

My name is Michelle and I've been an avid reader since I was a kid. With my head stuck in a 'Famous Five' book, I was never hindered by bed time thanks to my trusty torch. I live in Australia with my beautiful family. My tastes cover many genres but I do have a passion for Jane Austen and Austen inspired works. My site is full of these works and I hope my collection is of use to fellow lovers of Austen.
