Özet

Brought to you by Penguin.

One of the best-known and most beloved historical novelists, Georgette Heyer, as ever, captures a whole new audience's heart.

Stepping into the wrong carriage at a Sussex village, Elinor Rochdale is swept up in a thrilling and dangerous adventure. Overnight the would-be governess becomes mistress of a ruined estate and partner in a secret conspiracy to save a family's name. By midnight, she is a bride, by dawn, a widow.

A typically thrilling and sweeping tale of romance and tragedy, The Reluctant Widow is Georgette Heyer at her best - the undisputed queen of historical romance.

Excellent story ruined by the narration. It does get less stilted the longer you listen but the phrasing bears no relation to the punctuation, some of the pronunciation is strange and the accents are all over the place with Miss Beccles being particularly awful. I don't like to be negative but I really did not enjoy this narrator and am currently debating whether I will even finish it.

As this is one of my favourite Heyer books I was apprehensive about this version as some of the reviews were not good. But I don’t share their views, as I thought the narrator did an excellent job. He has a lovely warm voice and did the various characters very well. I liked that he didn’t camp up Francis as previous narrators have done and also that he used a regional accent for Miss Beccles. I also liked how he chose to pronounce Carlyon compared to the earlier version. Overall a really nice listen and I will watch out for books narrated by Mr Broni in the future.

This is one of Heyers most engaging and exciting novels but sadly the narration lets the story down. Too many words are mis-read and the inflexion in the sentences often very flat. What a shame.

Disappointing narration
