“M. Verant shows a great love for the work and period in this charming retelling. Napoleon Bonaparte wants English draca to use as weapons, so Elizabeth not only has to fend off pompous proposals, overbearing aristocrats; she's got draca and danger to her country to deal with as well” - Locus Magazine
“M. Verant captures the voice of Elizabeth Bennet in a meticulous transformation of the well-loved story into a historical romance that encompasses the Napoleonic Wars, arcane marriage laws, and women with the power to command the fiercest, most dangerous, and wisest of beasts.” - Vanessa MacLaren-Wray, author of All That Was Asked
“Miss Bennet’s Dragon is a delicious story that blends Pride and Prejudice with a fully realized world of dragons and magic. I didn't want it to end.” – Kate Pennington, author of A Rose by Another Name
“If you're looking for Austen-inspired adventure fantasy that's well told, this is it, and I recommend it to you.” – The Review Curmudgeon
“All of the Austen and dragons that you want, as well as the sharp social commentary, droll humour, and discussions of sexual and gender politics that you forgot were what you loved about Austen in the first place TURNED UP TO 11. Five stars” – Goodreads
“Miss Bennet’s Dragon is a wholly fresh homage to Jane Austen, as well as being a riveting novel in its own right. Verant echoes Austen’s tone perfectly while offering a thrilling, superbly paced, and moving plot that adds fresh complications at just the right moments. His characters come to life vividly—not only Lizzy and Darcy, but also at least one member of the Bennet family that Austen was content to leave as a caricature. Along the way, he introduces themes that 21st century readers will surely applaud. I highly recommend this novel to fans of Jane Austen, as well as to anyone who has ever pondered the mystery of dragons.” - Katherine Sturtevant, author of A True and Faithful Narrative and At the Sign of the Star
“This is a rewritten version of Pride and Prejudice; yet it is far more than that. It is a fantastically good version, and I loved it. If you’ve ever sighed over a historical romance novel; delighted over a fantasy full of dragons, then this is the novel for you.” – Kylie's Reviews
“Step into the world of Jane Austen Fantasy and you will never want to leave. Dragons, legends, bonding, social injustices, intrigue and the power of good versus evil abound. It will leave you breathless and unable to put the book down!” – Carole in Canada
