Historia
Welcome to the era of true marriages of convenience. Discover the reality of trading someone’s hand in marriage, such as an American heiress, in exchange for money, power, or political clout through compelling history lectures. Showcased in novels such as Edith Wharton’s The Age of Innocence and in present day pop culture through works like Downtown Abbey, the Gilded Age was an era of contradictions. Life on both sides of the Atlantic was grimy and glamorous, prosperous and impoverished, traditional and revolutionary.

Very interesting and informative
Revisado: 09-26-23
I found the history interesting, very informative, and well researched. However, she should not have read her own work. Her T-glottalization drove me crazy and I had to stop listening. She will do herself a favor by taking diction lessons or maybe just practicing “T” sounds in the center of words.
I did listen to the whole thing eventually and the last chapter covering these wealthy American bride’s contributions to saving British Estates was well worth going back to finish the book.

Stephen Fry is Magnificent
Revisado: 01-31-22
I would listen to Stephen Fry read the phone book, but his obvious love for Sherlock Holmes comes out in this performance to put him over and above all lofty expectations. I wish I had the words and the connections to express my personal gratitude to him for this excellent reading.

Okay collapse story
Revisado: 09-30-20
The reading sounded like a robot who did not speak English as a first language. Too many mispronunciations. I did like that the stories were grouped together.

Historia
This is not the story of preppers with stockpiles of food, weapons, and a hidden bunker. This is the story of Colton Ryman, his stay-at-home wife, Madison, and their teenage daughter, Alex. In 36 Hours, the Ryman family and the rest of the world will be thrust into the darkness of a post-apocalyptic world.

Too short
Revisado: 10-02-19
The writing is good but it is too short to be a full length book. The story leaves the reader hanging. Obviously a ruse to get double and triple the money for what should be a single novel, but instead was broken out into a series. I will wait until the anthology to read any more.
