Welcome to the website of Amanda Grange

I write adventurous historical romances set mainly in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. I also write books that tell the stories of Jane Austen's novels from the heroes' points of view.


Mr Darcy's Diary Cover

New release: Colonel Brandon's Diary will be out in paperback in the US on July 7

"Absolutely fascinating" - Historical Novel Society

"Rich atmospheric details" - Publishers Weekly

"A treat" - Austenblog

"Lots of fun" - Woman magazine

"Hits the Regency language and tone on the head." - Library Journal

"Intriguing" - Romantic Times

"Amanda Grange's Mr. Knightley's Diary gives us a new look at Emma Woodhouse. Grange is also the author of Mr. Darcy's Diary so she has a close knowledge of Austen's other reserved and initially un-romantic hero." - Washington Post



Forthcoming August 2009

Mr Darcy, Vampyre

Available to order now from Barnes and Noble and Amazon

Published by Sourcebooks, Mr Darcy, Vampyre is an immortal sequel to Pride and Prejudice. You can read more about it on the Mr Darcy Vampyre blog by clicking here


I also have a Darcy short story in a fabulous collection of short stories by wonderful authors such as Joanna Trollope, Carole Matthews, Nicola Cornick, Louise Allen, Joanna Maitland and many more. The hardback is available to order now and will be in local bookshops, supermarkets etc in the UK in September 2009. The paperback will follow in 2010. The book is in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the Romantic Novelists' Association, which takes place in 2010.

The cover is actually a lot nicer than this in real life as it's gold with foil decoration.
