We believe Jane Austen's works are in a class all their own. There are, however, other great authors that can tell a fantastic story while they "let other pens dwell on guilt and misery." The following lists authors and their works that also developed witty characters, a sense of life in that time and romantic conflict and resolution all while delighting the reader. In keeping with the Austen formula, these novels have everything you want and nothing you don't! They aren't Jane, but we think they deserve some attention!
