JANE AUSTEN AND THE ARCHANGEL

Elizabeth Jasicki's luscious voice, slow delivery, and perfect upper-class English accent converge to make this clever and romantic story, the first in a series, a heavenly experience. Bad boy Archangel Michael, best known for slaying dragons, is sent to a sleepy village in England to help in the war effort. His arrival puts him squarely in the path of Jane Austen, who is having writer's block after her success with PRIDE AND PREJUDICE. Jasicki mesmerizes, giving just the right amount of manly appeal to the charming Michael and just the right amount of spunk to the clever Jane. Listeners will wish that divine intervention could keep this book from ending. A.C.P. © AudioFile 2013, Portland, Maine [Published: JANUARY 2013]
