The Jane Austen Project

The characters' interventions in Jane Austen's timeline made me wonder whether their actions respect her original universe or risk changing something precious. What did others think about this balance?

The mix of real Austen details and sci-fi was seamless, but I’m curious whether there was a specific inspiration behind this approach or if it evolved during writing.

The relationships were tender and believable within the period, but I wonder if the fantasy aspect heightened the connection or distracted from it for some readers.
