Lorna Doone, a Romance of Exmoor is an historical novel of high adventure set in the South West of England during the turbulent time of Monmouth's rebellion (1685). It is also a moving love story told through the life of the young farmer John Ridd, as he grows to manhood determined to right the wrongs in his land, and to win the heart and hand of the beautiful Lorna Doone. Continuously in print since its first publication in 1869, Lorna Doone has remained perennially popular with a wide readership ever since.

Found it a bit boring - maybe the abridged version cut too much out.

Not my thing

Lorna Doone is a great novel. This version is abridged, presenting challenges, especially since the original is epic. This Talking Classics audiobook is excellent, although it should not be viewed as a substitute for the full novel.

So enjoyable
