Pride & Prejudice and Planets

An Alternate-Reality Pride & Prejudice Science Fiction Variation

De: Renata McMann, Summer Hanford

Narrado por: Benjamin Fife

What could possibly be in Longbourn Crater that was worth their while?When damage to his ship forces Captain Darcy to land in an unexpected location on an alien world, he's not prepared for what he finds. He expected aliens, certainly, but he didn't expect a contingent of humans related to Earth's most notorious traitor, or for those humans to be his crew’s only chance to repair their ship and complete their mission. Brilliant and beautiful, the human women they meet seem poised to do more harm than good.

Elizabeth Bennet may have been raised on an alien world, but she knows enough about human men to recognize a snub when confronted with one. She definitely has no time for supercilious captains who view her father as a traitor to humankind, but she’s more than happy to apply her considerable skills to repairing the Earth humans’ ship. The sooner they’re off her planet, the better.

Pride & Prejudice and Planets is an alternate-reality science fiction variation on Jane Austen’s classic Pride & Prejudice. Discover how Captain Darcy, Elizabeth Bennet, and all their usual companions negotiate alien races, dangerous space travel, and each other.

Original & fun

Becoming one of my favorite variations. The world building is very well done while everyone still remains in character. Love the new recording.

Fun!

I hope this becomes a series with many more adventures in space and on other planets. :)

An Austen Space Opera !! Very Fun Variation

I thoroughly enjoyed this Pride & Prejudice in Space version. Interesting transference of the original story into the Future and among the stars. The narrator was fine, but I thought his voice a little too old and wobbly for young women, especially for Elizabeth. Still, I did listen with enjoyment and I am sure I will again.

Really great and passionately narrated

The book itself is super creative and fun, but the narrator’s performance takes it up a level. You can really feel how excited he is to read this!

A great listen

I’ve read this novel a few times. It's that good. But Benjamin Fife’s range of character voices brings this great sci-fi take on Pride and Prejudice to life.
