The Avenger: Thomas Bennet and a Father's Lament: A Time Travel Pride and Prejudice Variation

Travel from 1814 to 1947

Forced to avenge a beloved daughter’s murder, romance rekindles between Mr. & Mrs. Bennet amid their grief. Sometimes a trip to the future is needed to reveal what has been there all along.

Fanny Bennet uncovers motherly courage as she stands by her man’s side in the bleak years after World War II. Thomas Bennet, who once took satisfaction in his ability to insulate himself from the world—and his wife—by closing the door to Longbourn’s library, now discovers how little he knew about the woman sharing his life. Together, they pursue the beast who wronged the Bennets.

Learning to love again is life’s greatest challenge. Reviving love with the same woman is doubly difficult in any time or place.

Lory Lilian, author of Rainy Days, says of The Thomas Bennet and a Father’s Lament

The Avenger takes us on a new journey through The Bennet Wardrobe – an alternate universe rising from Don Jacobson’s vivid imagination and based upon the immortal Pride and Prejudice. The Avenger is another important step leading to the culmination of this enchanting one that has drawn us into its reality to travel side-by-side with richly sketched characters. Each book has left us wanting more. The Bennet Wardrobe series stands alone as a unique result of originality focused on beloved characters as they move—and grow—through surprising plotlines.

The whole series is amazing, but this particular book is quite moving. I laughed, I cried, I felt quite frustrated at times, and at others felt quite giddy with the characters and storyline. This series is quite imaginative, and I am deeply regretful that it was in my TBR pile for so long. This series would make great television miniseries because the author's world-building and storytelling are very compelling.

LisaMarie137 headlined her review “So Many Layers.”

I love getting to see characters I have enjoyed in various capacities have a story that allows them to grow and mature. We see personalities, who may have been very simple and one-note, grow into multi-layered onions. Additionally, we see a rich story with so many vibrant characters, timelines, and pieces that don't seem as though they would work together, instead lure the reader into a world where you can practically see the cigar smoke and smell the London streets. Definitely, you need to start at the beginning with this series. Do not try to leap into the middle or you will be hopelessly lost and won't love the layers!

Another Kindle Customer says of The Avenger “Better and better!”

I so enjoy this crazy P&P universe. A surprise to me, because I usually struggle with time variations, but I am fully involved and committed to this darn wardrobe! Thank you Don Jacobson for such a complex and fascinating ride.

I love how the author incorporates real history into P&P fan fic. He captures the characters perfectly within Jane Austen’s world.
