Set in the 1840s, when the upper echelons of society began to rub shoulders with the emerging industrial nouveau riche, Belgravia is peopled by a rich cast of characters. But the story begins on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. At the Duchess of Richmond's new legendary ball, one family's life will change forever.

I met Jamie Fraser when I was 19 years old. He was tall, redheaded, and, at our first meeting at least, a virgin. I fell in love hard, fast, and completely. He knew how to ride a horse, wield a sword, and stitch a wound. He was, in fact, the perfect man. That he was fictional hardly entered into it.

Early one morning, less than a month after her 18th birthday, Alexandrina Victoria is roused from bed with the news that her uncle William IV has died, and she is now queen of England. The men who run the country have doubts about whether this sheltered young woman, who stands less than five feet tall, can rule the greatest nation in the world. Surely she must rely on her mother and her venal advisor, Sir John Conroy, or her uncle, the Duke of Cumberland, who are all too eager to relieve her of the burdens of power.

When The Far Pavilions was first published 19 years ago, it moved the critic Edmund Fuller to write this: "Were Miss Kaye to produce no other book, The Far Pavilions might stand as a lasting accomplishment in a single work comparable to Margaret Mitchell's achievement in Gond With the Wind." From its beginning in the foothills of the towering Himalayas, M. M. Kaye's masterwork is a vast, rich, and vibrant tapestry of love and war that ranks with the greatest panoramic sagas of modern fiction.

This book is a must read.
This makes the entire series more fascinating and makes you feel torn between Ross and Demelza. Elisabeth and George. You will feel contempt and compassion where you would not.

More like acting than reading to you
The people reading this series of books is what really excites me. I like how they use inflection and the different accents that I could not do in my head if I were reading the book myself. Being a southern American, my accents would be all wrong and could not dare do this book justice if just reading it. Even though I've seen the PBS/BBC series production, the books are worth the listen. Downloading the next in series now.

Really great continuation
What did you love best about Warleggan?
There are so many great moments in this book and at times I found myself laughing out loud. You love to hate George Warleggan, he's such a petulant and insecure character, but he's so vital to the success of this series. The narration is great too.
