It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

Of Gates and Grace is a light, sweet, very low-angst novella of a little 39,000 words written from a decidedly Christian perspective. When Darcy and Elizabeth meet for the first time – or is it the second? – he mistakes her for a wood nymph. Excerpt: “Well, are you coming in?” After a pause, the gatekeeper, presumably St. Peter, repeated more slowly as if he was speaking to slow-witted children, “So are you two coming in or staying out there?” Darcy spoke first, “I don’t think I’m finished yet. I have more that I need to accomplish. My sister isn’t yet married, and…and...

Story
As a child, Elizabeth Bennet's years were split into two distinct segments: her normal life with four rambunctious sisters in Hertfordshire, and summers in Derbyshire on the estate of her father's friend Mr. Darcy. Summertime meant peaks to explore, horses to ride, a library full of books, and friends unlike anyone she knew at home. It was an idyllic escape - until the year that everything came crashing down and summers at Pemberley became no more than a fading memory. When Fitzwilliam Darcy walks into the Meryton Assembly half a decade later, Elizabeth doesn't know how to reconcile the two...

VV not too bad and Story is Very Interesting
I dislike Virtual Voice, but it wasn’t too bad in this audiobook. Has the technology improved? This Unusual and Very Interesting Variation makes the VV issues tolerable. I really enjoyed this version of P&P with the Bennett family so much more intelligent, harmonious and even wealthier than in canon. The story held my attention throughout.

Finally… a story about industry and inventions!
I really liked the story line. I loved Elizabeth as an inventor and would want to see even more development in that area.

I loved this scenario. It’s nice to have an Elizabeth that is allowed to showcase her intelligence and worthiness. Too many Jaff stories have a shrewish unreasonably demanding and unforgiving character. It makes one wonder what would make a man of Darcy’s status interested in her since she is bringing nothing tangible to the table. In some of these books I have thought he would be better off to walk away. His groveling too much to be believed. In this story I appreciated that the Bennet’s are much more important and palatable. I’ve had enough of the same tired exploits of Wickham, Lydia and Mrs. Bennet’s wailing. I found this book much more entertaining and appreciated the creativity and the notes to authenticate the events of the period. While I prefer a talented reader I did not find the VV intolerable. I prefer stories with all the Bennet sisters pretty and Charlotte attractive too. Lovely story that I very much enjoyed. Brava, well done.

Great story
I like the way the characters are portrayed and the wealth of the Gardeners and the Bennetts. Also liked that the Bennetts, including Mrs Bennett, were intelligent.
