Mr. Bennet's Illness
(2018)(A book in the Elizabeth and Darcy Story series)
A Story by Timothy Underwood
A 13,000 word comic pride and prejudice variation, with love, absurdity, and a paragraph long quotation from Fordyce's Sermons
After a serious illness Mr. Bennet dedicated his life to what truly mattered to him. Reading all the books.
His problem: Noise, noise, noise.
He needed to get rid his noisy, crackling, cackling brood. That fabulously quiet Darcy fellow who loaned him books and Lizzy got along well together, but what about the rest? And could he convince Mrs. Bennet to also run off with some wealthy young gentleman?
Elizabeth worried about how Papa had changed since his illness.
But surely he would never force Lydia to marry Mr. Collins, just so he wouldn't need to listen to her chatter and clatter any more? And if Papa did try to force her sister to marry the toad of Hunsford, could Elizabeth trust Mr. Darcy to help her save Lydia?
Note: I suspect some readers will find the price high for a 13k word story. I put the price at the lowest I can while still getting 70% royalties. If I set the price any lower, my royalty rate becomes 35%, and I just don't want Jeff Bezos get more of your money than I do :P
