Is it a truth universally acknowledged that a young Austen heroine must be in want of a husband? You are in the world of a Jane Austen novel. As the events of Pride and Prejudice – and Austen’s other novels – start to unfold around you, you must choose your own path, avoiding social scandal and unsuitable engagements, and write your own destiny, whether it’s to marry a single man in possession of a good fortune or to become a famous author yourself. A witty and irreverent celebration of Jane Austen and her novels, this literary game will test all your powers of propriety and prudence.

Have you ever wished you could step into your favourite fantasy novel? The forest that hums with old magic. The village that looks unchanged in centuries. The candlelit library filled with secrets. The truth is, these places exist – you just have to know where to look. ‘Enchanted Earth’ shows you the real-world destinations that feel like fiction. The kind of places that stop you in your tracks – not because they’re famous, but because they feel too good to be true. Each chapter introduces a set of landscapes that echo the stories you love, from shadowy realms to magical settings. With every page, you’ll collect places to dream about, or even visit. Like Hohenzollern Castle in Germany, where towering spires pierce a misty sky. Or the Livraria Lello in Portugal, where swirling staircases lead to shelves of spellbinding books.
