A review by tculp
The Last Chronicle of Barset by Anthony Trollope

5.0

Ok, friends, this is a seriously great wrap-up to a classic series. As far as I know, Trollope is the only well-known Victorian British novelist that wrote in series - he has two. This is the end of the Chronicles of Barset series - #6. In the first 5 novels, we see some recurring characters distantly. The first 2 are more connected, but then the stories are pretty independent except for glances, small updates, and mentions of characters you’ve seen before, who all live in the same county. In this last one, he brings them all together. It is absolutely delightful. It was 30 hours on audio, and when I started it, I thought “this better be good,” but I was entranced and giggling the whole time. I’ve read the first 2 in his other series, and now I must go read the rest of those.
