Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joan Aiken, one of Jane Austen's most sparkling successors, takes up Austen's pen yet again, this time continuing where Pride and Prejudice left off in Lady Catherine's Necklace. In Austen's classic novel, the arrogant Lady Catherine de Bourgh tried vehemently to prevent the betrothal of her nephew Mr. Darcy, whom she had intended for her daughter Anne, to the less socially connected Elizabeth Bennet. Defeated, she retreats to her grand estate-- Rosings Park. This enchanting sequel tells the story of what happens one balmy April day when a sudden blizzard disrupts the weather, causes a carriage accident, and affects the lives of all those involved in a most amazing way. From out of the blizzard emerge the Delaval siblings. Miss Delaval, having twisted her ankle in the carriage accident, accepts Lady Catherine's gracious hospitality while she recovers. But the Delavals' presence proves disturbing to the entire household-- first causing the removal of two artists from their cottage home on the de Bourgh property, then meddling in Miss Anne's marriage plans. Suddenly, Lady Catherine is kidnapped, revealing some members of the household to be not at all what they seemed.

Book excerpt: Mr. Darcy's younger sister searches for her own happily-ever-after... The year is 1814, and it is springtime at Pemberley. Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy have married. But now a new romance is in the air, along with high fashion, elegant manners, scandal, deception, and the wonderful hope of a true and lasting love. Shy Georgiana Darcy has been content to remain unmarried, living with her brother and his new bride. But Elizabeth and Darcy's fairy-tale love reminds Georgiana daily that she has found no true love of her own. And perhaps never will, for she is convinced the one man she secretly cares for will never love her in return. Georgiana's domineering aunt, Lady Catherine de Bourgh, has determined that Georgiana shall marry, and has a list of eligible bachelors in mind. But which of the suitors are sincere, and which are merely interested in Georgiana's fortune? Georgiana must learn to trust her heart--and rely on her courage--for she also faces the return of the man who could ruin her reputation and spoil a happy ending, just when it finally lies within her grasp. Georgiana Darcy's Diary is Book 1 of the Pride and Prejudice Chronicles and is appropriate for all ages.

Book excerpt: A Young Woman Longing for Adventure and an Artistic Life... Because she's an illegitimate child, Eliza is raised in the rural backwater with very little supervision. An intelligent, creative, and free-spirited heroine, unfettered by the strictures of her time, she makes friends with poets William Wordsworth and Samuel Coleridge, finds her way to London, and eventually travels the world, all the while seeking to solve the mystery of her parentage. With fierce determination and irrepressible spirits, Eliza carves out a life full of adventure and artistic endeavor. PRAISE FOR JOAN AIKEN "Others may try, but nobody comes close to Aiken in writing sequels to Jane Austen." PublishersWeekly "Aiken's story is rich with humor, and her language is compelling. Readers captivated with Elinor and Marianne Dashwood in Sense and Sensibility will thoroughly enjoy Aiken's crystal gazing, but so will those unacquainted with Austen." Booklist "...innovative storyteller Aiken again pays tribute to Jane Austen in a cheerful spinoff of Sense and Sensibility." Kirkus Reviews

Catherine is a lady now, and that means she needs to give up her secret life of fencing. She can’t keep pretending to be a boy and fraternizing with men, but before she does, she’s determined to win the upcoming fencing tournament and have her nom de guerre engraved on the traveling trophy. Her mother plans to marry her off by the end of the season, so this will be her last chance to enjoy her freedom. When she risks everything to save the life of the dashing marquess, her secret identity fails her. Can the Mad Marquess find a bride? Daniel, Marquess of Huntley, wants to be embraced by London society, but to do that, he needs to quash the rumors of his father’s madness. He plans to marry the most proper and well-connected woman he can find so they can raise stable, respectable children with stainless pedigrees. He certainly isn’t interested in some hoyden with a penchant for masquerading as a boy and flaunting society’s rules. In fact, he’d prefer to keep her at a distance. It comes down to a question of honor… When a penniless earl uncovers Catherine’s secret and blackmails her, the only path out of social ruin is marriage, but to whom? She soon learns that matrimony provides little protection when a vengeful suitor is plotting the ultimate revenge.

Lizzy and Darcy first met at the Meryton assembly ball, where their initial impressions of each other were less than favorable. However, as they navigate their way through social conventions and familial expectations, they find themselves drawn to each other in ways they never thought possible, but their path to happiness is not without its obstacles. Darcy’s interference with Jane’s happiness threatens to tear them apart, and the scheming Lady Catherine de Bourgh is determined to force an engagement between Darcy and her daughter Anne at the Rosings Park ball. Will Lizzy and Darcy be able to overcome these challenges and find love? Or will their differences prove to be too much to overcome? The answer lies in the next ball they attend, where their fate will be decided once and for all.

Book excerpt: Jane Austen's Mansfield Park famously narrates the story of Fanny Price moving in with the Ward family. Written almost two centuries later, Joan Aiken's powerful sequel introduces us t The Youngest Miss Ward, Hatty. Although creative, charismatic and witty, Hatty Ward lacks the beauty that her older sisters inherited - leaving her to care for their ill mother and without a dowry once they are married off. Sent to Portsmouth to live with her rumbustious uncle and cousins, Hatty turns her creative flair to poetry and believes she'll become a governess, that is until handsome Lord Camber passes through town... With imagination and authenticity Joan Aiken captures the customs and language of Austen's England in this one of a kind sequel, revealing a subversive and unique heroine. H
