The perfect gift for any Jane Austen lover for only 29.99. Each boxset contains seven books, together creating a comprehensive collection of Austen's best and much-loved works. Beautifully packaged in... This description may be from another edition of this product.
While a boxset might be prettier, I enjoy the fact that I paid the price of one book and got multiple classics. I was on the lookout for Pride and Prejudice and found all her novels in one book instead. As a Jane Austen lover, I am thrilled with this. It may not be gorgeous on the outside, but the illustrations before each book (in my version at least) make up for it.
Disappointed

While I love the stories, I can’t read them because the text is too small. I wish it had arrived in a larger format

A Must-Have Collection for Austen Fans!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 5 years ago
I purchased this book to gain access to many of Austen’s novels that I had never read and did not own, and am beyond pleased with this edition! The stories are unabridged, and the edition itself is beautiful-a hard-bound gray that looks beautiful on my end table or bookshelf. Highly recommend for readers just diving into the world of Jane Austen-you will LOVE this collection!

I can now say that I have read all of Jane Austen's works. The print may be small and my eyes may be old, but I enjoyed every story in this collection. A must for the home library.

The Complete Novels of Jane Austen

This book has been great to have the completed works of Jane Austen. The price is good, and the ability to have all the works right at your finger tips in one volumn is wonderful to have. Makes school a lot easier for the kids.
8 Classics in one volume
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Of course the reputation of these novels by Jane Austen is well-known. I enjoyed all these classic novels very much. This book is especially nice because it contains 8 novels in one book. It is lightweight paperback, and easy to carry around. The printers did not waste any space...they left only a very small margin on each page, used a small font (no problem, though, for my reading glasses!), and began each novel on the very next page after the previous one ends. No "fluff", very little white space.
I thought the layout was fine - not a problem. A good buy!

Re the review below - OK, so the layout's in two columns, but then so is the Complete Works of Shakespeare that I own, and the same for Chaucer. It's normal for 'complete works' editions like these to be laid out in more than one column - otherwise the book would be much too thick! The print size is slightly smaller than for a standard book - it's about the same as for a newspaper, so if you're OK reading a newspaper, then you should be fine with this book. A really good value edition, and well worth buying.
