One of my favorites of the many P&P variations. Contains lots of humor, plot twists on the original story, and zips along at a quick & interesting pace. I especially enjoyed put-downs for three of Austen's nasty characters: a lusty Mr. Collins, a debt-ridden Wickham, and a well-deserved comeuppance for Caroline Bingley. The author makes clever use of dialogue from the original story, but stated by different characters. I've read everything Jack Caldwell has written in the Jane Austen vein, and eagerly await more.
