About this listen

The creator of the hit show Downton Abbey, Julian Fellowes weaves a tale filled with dark secrets and scandal amongst the privileged set in the upper classes of London society. Wonderful and witty, it perfectly captures a bygone era with a colourful cast of characters and an intriguing story.

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....

Perhaps a little predictable but an excellent read nonetheless. Wonderfully read by Juliet Stevenson who brought all the characters to life and who is so easy to listen to. A must for lovers of Julian Fellowes and period drama. I hope there is more to come about all these characters in a second book.

We know what to expect from Julian Fellowes. Everything will work out in the end, a twist will save the heroine from ruin and the evildoers will fail to prosper.
I enjoy Fellowes' attention to detail, particularly regarding etiquette and convention. While he may not be the most gripping or original of writers there's always enough in the story to hold my attention. This book was no different from his other work in that respect.

Comfortably predictable.

I am a Downtown Abbey fan but didn't expect to enjoy this book as much as I did. I usually listen during long car journeys but was so gripped that I had to finish listening at home. Not something I do too often. So that tells you how much I enjoyed it. Juliet Stevenson's reading brought the characters to life and made it even more enjoyable.

An Excellent Story, excellently read
