About this listen

Jeremy Poldark is the third novel in Winston Graham's hugely popular Poldark series, which has become a television phenomenon starring Aidan Turner.

Cornwall 1790. Ross Poldark faces the darkest hour of his life. Accused of wrecking two ships, he is to stand trial at the Bodmin Assizes.

Despite their stormy married life, Demelza has tried to rally support for her husband. But there are enemies in plenty who would be happy to see Ross convicted, not least George Warleggan, the powerful banker, whose personal rivalry with Ross grows ever more intense.

Jeremy Poldark is followed by the fourth book in this evocative series, Warleggan.

I have enjoyed Winston Graham's novels of Cornwall so much that this is either the fourth or fifth time that I have read them. He sweeps you back effortlessly to a Cornwall in the late 18th century. Congratulations to the author.

Where does Jeremy Poldark: Poldark, Book 3 rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Other than the Poldark series book 1 & 2, I have only listened to two other books. In answer to the question it rates high. Oliver J Hembrough is a great story teller. He handles all the various voices well and you just get drawn in and love the characters.

Who was your favorite character and why?

My favourite character is Demelzia, who could not love her. She is the back bone of the whole series and always tries to make everyone happy. She loves Ross with a passion. But I also really enjoy Judd Painter. Makes me laugh every time he goes off on one with his tain't right moments.

What does Oliver J. Hembrough bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Big fan of Oliver's reading. He makes the characters come alive to me. Can't wait to listen to more of his narrations.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Not sure I could listen to 11 hours non-stop!

Any additional comments?

Can't wait to get the next and last in the series.

I perticulary liked the way and how it was read, bringing the characters to life

Great story line

I am totally hooked on the story of the Poldarks, their friends and their community.
Have your tissues to hand at times as life is hard in them at times.
I am hoping that Ross comes to his senses and doesn't loose the good thing he has in Demelza' by hanging onto the past, Elizabeth really doesn't deserve it!
So let's see where book 4 takes us.

A great performance

Indeed I loved this, the third in the series. I've read them without a break and will be sorry when I've gone through them all. It's no different from the earlier books in that the characters and their actions feel authentic, and I still love being "in" late-18th century Cornwall as I walk the dog. Highly recommended.

Adventure, derring-do, pathos...stirring stuff!
