Revelations part 3: Anne
Georgiana and Eric are as happy as a newly engaged couple can be, they are not only deeply in love with each other, they share a passion almost as powerful and as precious as romantic the all-consuming drive to master the piano-forte. Will Eric's success bring them to new heights together, or will adulating fans come between them?
And what about poor Anne de Bourgh? Her life has turned into a never-ending struggle with depression and looming death. Will she succumb to her weakness friendless, never to know higher feelings? Or will Colonel Fitzwilliam help her to escape Rosings, to look for a life of her own and maybe find...love?
And how is Lydia faring in far-off Newcastle, is she dreaming sweet dreams of motherhood, or struggling through the nightmares of ergot poisoning?
Meanwhile, Elizabeth enjoys her freedom while it lasts, she knows a little heir to Pemberley can announce itself any moment to tie her to the house. And Darcy is still struggling with jealousy, he knows Elizabeth loves only him, so why can't he let go of his despicable doubts?
Of course Mr Wickham, Mr Collins and Miss Bingley will also make their appearances, a life without nuisances would be boring, and too much happiness always holds the risk of leading to hubris.

Language and Grammar Weaken Interesting Plot
The author does bring us an interesting Plotline delving into the realization of the potentials of a liberated Anne de Bourgh. However, wile several of the scenes are intriguing, this reviewer rapidly became wearied by the manner in which the characters would go on and on. Also, the lingo employed was more 21st century than early 19th. Is it possible that the book was originally written in another language and then pushed through a digital translation software? Editing would have likewise helped. Finally, I note that this book follows the trend of many others by employing page after page of "love" sequences. We got it. Darcy lusts after Elizabeth and she after him.

This book is like the previous books of this series, but with another character.
I didn't like it as much as the first or even the second part though. One reason is the fact that my favorite character, Elizabeth, is not as important to the plot. Anne is a great protagonist, and I get why the author changed the main character, but I still want more about this Elizabeth Darcy.
Although Anne is a great main character, she is a bit unbelievable. Her actions and personal traits are explained in the book, but in my opinion, you can't add so much exception to the norms of the time without it becoming unrealistic. Elizabeth is almost the same as the canon Elizabeth. But all the rest of the characters have changed drastically. Sure you can say it was Elizabeth's influence, but I don't think it is realistic to think she can change everyone around her this much.
Manner's is a great character too. I think he was one of the best parts of the book. His emotions, goals, and actions were depicted very well. It is, in my opinion, one of the best character developments in fanfictions I've ever read.
This is a good fanfiction, and it doesn't have a dominant play anymore either, so people who hated that can read this with ease. The main part of this book is unchristian though. :D If that bothers you, I think you should read something else. Like books by Richard Dawkins.
