Publisher's Summary

Julian Fellowes's Belgravia is the story of a secret. A secret that unravels behind the porticoed doors of London's grandest postcode.

Set in the 1840s, when the upper echelons of society began to rub shoulders with the emerging industrial nouveau riche, Belgravia is peopled by a rich cast of characters. But the story begins on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815. At the Duchess of Richmond's now legendary ball, one family's life will change forever....

Another time another place. An escapist listen

Always enjoy a period piece, and this one is no exception. The unique format (episode rather than chapters) added to the uniqueness of this listen.


No great revaluation of a storyline more the interaction of the characters and the changing of dynamics keeps you wanting to listen.

You can't help but liken to Downtown Abbey. It won't dissappoint!

Look forward to further Fellows installments.

An enjoyable escapist listen. Highly recommend.

Great book.

Absolutely loved the book and the narrator did a wonderful job. Some books take a while to get started, but not this one - I was drawn into the story from the very beginning. If you loved Downton Abbey, you're going to love Belgravia.

Narrator was excellent

Great story, but what I enjoyed most was listening to the narrator. She did all the different voices and was superb.

Juliet Stevenson is amazing

Brilliant narration, it was so easy to forget all the characters were voiced by just one person. Ripping yarn too.

Disappointing

The novel’s repetitiveness is reflected in the fact that I forwarded it for almost 10 hours and lost nothing at all in the story. I didn’t care to spend time with all but two of the characters and them only just. Juliet Stevenson was marvellous as always but even she could not save it for me.

Great escapism!

The narrator was excellent and the story was so engrossing; did not want it to end. Yet to meet a Julian Fellowes book or movie I didn’t like! Can’t wait for Gilded Age!

Downton Abbey Fan

I was already a fan of Downton Abbey, so it was easy for me to enjoy this book. The narration was excellent and the story very entertaining. Definitely recommend.

Entertaining

Definitely helped to fill the Downton Abbey sized hole in my heart...if only for a little while. Juliet Stevenson is incredible. Sometimes I forgot she was the only one performing. wonderful listen!
