A story with humor and character. The vanities that the characters portray is a reflection about the aristocracy during the time period. A society based on gossip. Pretensions to being privy of information while trying to obtain the information. The wooing and misleading behaviors are given their due. The focus appears on the vicissitudes of fortune and how they are dealt with. Holding on to perceptions rather than adjusting them to reality. The mannerisms in which people deceive themselves and others about the extent of their means and abilities.
Sometimes the author provides a synopsis of what has happened, as a reminder given that this book was originally a series. Generally a tedious read.
