    As opulent and passionate as the 18th century it celebrates, Through a Glass Darkly will sweep you away to the splendors of a lost era. From aristocrats to scoundrels, its rich, vivid characters create their own immortality. Here is the story of a great family ruled by a dowager of extraordinary power; of a young woman seeking love in a world of English luxury and French intrigue; and of a man haunted by a secret that could turn all dreams to ashes.

    Story

    I am sorry to skew these reviews with only a 2-star rating but I couldn't get through this book!

    I was really looking forward to hearing this book and then getting the next in the series but this book turned me off to them.

    I got more than half way through and turned it off and I don't seem to care to know what happens to the characters.

    I listened to it mainly while driving to and from work and maybe my mind was too distracted but I couldn't keep all of the female characters straight as there seem to be a billion of them all with too-similar voices.

    The main character, Diana, is whiny, annoying, immature and can't figure out what she wants. Unbelievable tragedy follows her to the point of ridiculousness (just wait for the second half!).

    Sorry, but I can't recommend this book.
