Murder by Death
Murder by Death rated it 9 years ago
I struggled at the beginning with this one; partially, I'm sure, because Sanditon is the only one of Austen's works I haven't read. This made it very difficult for me to keep track of all the characters (there's a lot of them). Elizabeth and Darcy find themselves at Sanditon on the behest of Co...

This is the sixth in the Mr and Mrs Darcy series. Bebris takes the married Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and sets them down before various settings and characters of Jane Austen's other novels, involving them in various mysteries for them to investigate ...

I liked this, but not as much as the earlier Darcy mysteries. The conceit of this series is that Jane Austen's Elizabeth and Fitzwilliam Darcy of Pride and Prejudice become involved in a series of mysteries--ones that involved characters and places involving Austen's other novels. In this case, it's...

This was the first Mr and Mrs Darcy mystery by Bebris I read, which may account for my affection for it. I'm not claiming Bebris is Austen's peer in writing, but I think any book I enjoyed as much as this deserves high marks. I enjoyed the Darcys' company quite a bit here, and this is a good solid r...

This is a Pride and Prejudice pastiche with Austen's Mr and Mrs Darcy as its detectives, the third in a series which I've read out of order yet enjoyed. I don't think you necessarily need to read these in order. This is one of the stronger outings, and I found myself frequently smiling while reading...

Although I admit Bebris is no Jane Austen, I must confess I relished this book, often smiling while reading, and went on to read and enjoy the rest in the series published to date. The book is first of a series where Mr and Mrs Darcy of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice are sleuths, often with an el...

When I first started reading this, I thought, "Oh dread. Jane Austen fanfic." But then I tried a story or two (and then three or four) and found that this was rather well-done Austen fanfiction. My biggest criticism is that there weren't enough stories related to Sense and Sensibility. That said, I ...

Excellent read. I thik Ms. Bebris does an fine job with the Darcy's, keeping them true to Jane Austen's creations. I love getting lost in their adventures and I'm sorry to find that I'm caught up with this series now. There are two mysteries in this book - the death of a pregnant woman and the dea...

This book's plot centers around Highbury and the characters from Jane Austen's Emma, one of the few remaining Austen books I haven't yet read. I think this hindered me with this story, as I had a terrible time keeping the characters and which estates they belonged to, straight in my mind while readi...
