Excellent variation!!

I thought this variation was a breath of fresh air amongst the numerous P&P variations and sequels.  instead of meeting in Hertfordshire, Darcy and Elizabeth meet in London and their relationship begins from there.  I thought that the story was well thought out and the characters fairly true to form, though Darcy is not near as "proud" as in the original.  A few typos here and there, but not as bad as some of the other self published variations.

The book was over 400 pages, but I found it to be a quick read.  I highly recommend.

I started off with the bordered version, but ended up buying the borderless version, as well. I thought I was going to like one more than the other, but I actually like them both equally! The artwork on these cards are stunning, so unique and different than other decks I have. They definitely aren't for faint of heart...this is one deck that youll either love or hate. And its also not the deck that you can use on everyone. The figures are beautifully disturbing, and the scenes are dark and mysterious. Overall, I tend to gravitate towards the darker decks and Deviant Moon is one of my favorites!

Note, in the photos I took, the top row is the borderless version and the bottom row is the bordered one. I wanted to,show you what they look like side by side. The cards are almost the same size, with the borderless version coming in just slightly narrower. Same cardstock though.

This recording consists of all 33 variations on a Waltz in C Major by Anton Diabelli (Op. 120).  In 1819 Diabellis publisher circulated the waltz to Austrias most prominent composers with an invitation to each to write a variation as part of a collective work.  Fifty accepted the challenge.  But four years later Beethoven sent him 33 variations.  Diabelli must have been just thrilled!

The first track is the Waltz that the remaining variations are based on, and in and of itself it is a wonderful little tune.  But what Beethoven does with the musical foundation of this tune is just remarkable.  Particularly noteworthy for me were Variation 14 (track 15, Grave e maestoso) due to the feel of the variation and the much slower tempo requiring a particularly virtuosic touch to provide balance and depth to the variation, Variation 16 (track 17, Allegro) which is just a beast to play even for someone with the talents of Mr. Leotta even though he makes it sound far too easy, Variation 19 (track 20, Presto) is not only difficult, but sounds like it would really fun to watch, Variation 20 (track 21, Andante) is slow and quiet, requiring a delicate but firm touch and a particularly sensitive sense of balance for the entire 3:15 of the variation, Variation 26 (track 27, Piacevole) has a beautiful cascade of notes that trickle down the keyboard and under Mr. Leottas touch the sequence is seamless, Variation 31 (track 32, Largo molto, espressivo) which for this listener has a deeply personal feeling of subtle strength coupled with resignation and weariness, and finally Variation 33 (track 34, Tempo di Menuetto, moderato) a rather noble and gentle piece of music that is incredibly well constructed and pleasing to both the ear and the mind.

The quality of this recording is marvelous, and I cant say enough about Mr. Leottas playing.  It is clear that he is emotionally invested in bringing each variation to life, and investing every note with nuances and expressiveness. I highly recommend this CD!

I was introduced to this game by playing HEX HEX NEXT. This complete version is wonderfully balanced, super fun, and the variations merge with original gameplay perfectly!

These new variations on "La Folia" are an excellent addition to the violin repertoire.  Both technically challenging and musically satisfying, they are are a must have item for the personal libraries of seasoned performers, teachers, and advanced students.

Be sure to find the CD and mp3 album, performed by the composer, also available here on Amazon.com!

This beautiful music uses variations on a simple theme.  The variations involve changes of musical instruments as well as those of the theme itself.  After hearing this music, I found that my mind continued the variations, so my enjoyment of this fine music continued for hours.

So far have read 3 of the 5 variations from this author, and this is the best one. At first the romancy-part is a bit much but then you get used to it and enjoy the story. I liked it so much that I am going to order the other 2 books in this series.

Definitely different arrangements than you are used to hearing.....some I like better than original versions. A beautiful recording to listen to the subtle nuances of the masters.

I loved the old Avalon Hill version of 1830; I can't count how many times I've played it.  When I first heard about the recent revision/reprint of this game by Mayfair, I thought "Why would I need it", especially since I had the "Reading RR Variant" from "The General" (AH's old company magazine).

After researching the Mayfair components on Board Game Geek, and having enjoyed Mayfair's offerings of 1856 and 1870 (and the quality of their components, etc.), I decided to "take the plunge" and purchase this edition.

Got it today, opened it up, and I am VERY pleased!  I was also pleased that the edition I purchased did indeed have the "Errata Tiles" (which were provided by Mayfair to early purchasers).  I was VERY pleased that this edition not only includes the old "Reading RR variant", but also variants for "Pere Marquette RR", "Nickel Plate RR" and Norfolk & Western Rwy".

All of the components in this new edition--particularly the track tiles and the Map, are beautiful, and very well done.

I can't wait to play this!

Very nice book. Note: they are all variations on a few themes - but I personally think this is great. You learn how to make minor modifications to basic pattern.  We used it as a group craft project over the holidays.

I have read this story at least 5 times, that I can remember, and am finally adding a review.  Having read all the other reviews, I can only say this.  Abigail Reynolds is, by far, my favorite "what-if"/variations author.  And I own close to 100 variations or sequels to JA's works.  One has to accept, if one is reading a variation, that it is not Jane Austen's book exactly and why would you read a variation if you want the real thing?  I love how Ms. Reynolds gets us into the minds of our beloved characters; I love when they can't keep their hands or lips off each other - oh, the angst!  I didn't miss Lady C. or Wickham and Lydia showing up - Frankly, I thought Mr. Bennet should have stuck to his guns and not allowed the latter couple entry in the original story.  Little scenes like Darcy scolding his sister for her behavior and then having to admit to being a hypocrite develop the changes in his character for me.  Then Lizzie having to reflect on her own actions vs. Lydia's show a depth of self-examination.  The scene in the Inn at Lambton is one of my favorite scenes written by Abigail.

Great items. I appreciate the variation is sizes of ephemera included. A goodly number of pieces in this set. Of course, I am greedy and always want more, more, more! However, this set does NOT disappoint.
