The characters were engaging and I found the secondary story of Elizabeth's parents endearing in the end and a source of curiosity toward the beginning. Darcy just as Elizabeth doesn't know what to make of a man who irks her deeply and yet she can't get him out of her mind even when the conniving Mr. Of course, the sparkling and diverting Miss Elizabeth Bennet had a gift that confounds the unflappable, arrogant and extremely gifted Mr. It was fun to see how the character's personalities seemed to play a role in what sort of magic they wielded like it was an extension of who they are. Manners and magic was melded so well in this one. I love the premise that magic and magic users are part of the everyday life of the world in the time of Regency England. It follows the principle points of that story until about halfway when the magical part of the plot jogs the events into a new and suspenseful direction. I was eager to pick up this magically-flavored variation on a classic that is a cover to cover charmer.ĭisenchanted is a standalone variation story that can be enjoyed regardless of whether the reader is familiar with Austen's Pride & Prejudice or not.
