Laurence King The World of Jane Austen 1000 Piece Puzzle

This puzzle is delightful and will be enjoyed by any Jane Austen fan. It was not too difficult, and so fun to complete that I ordered it again for a friend! The art is beautiful and the quality of the puzzle added to the enjoyment.

This was great quality the puzzle was so much fun to put together.

Lovely, good quality puzzle.

This is a puzzle that I will assemble several times again because of the fun theme and creative design! If you love Jane Austen books, then you'll appreciate the thoughtful little details throughout the artwork! The type of picture made it an easy puzzle to assemble: the lines of the drawings are clean, the colors are vibrant and distinct, and the size of picture fits well with the size of the pieces. The cardboard is thick making the pieces durable. The pieces are uniformly sized and standard in shape--none of those wacky-shaped pieces that make the puzzle unnecessarily complicated to fit together. It also comes with a poster that identifies all the characters and tells a fun little story. It would be great for a girls' weekend or a Pride and Prejudice viewing party (the long BBC version of course)!

Size - 27 x 19Number of pieces -1000Piece type - all pieces have the same two knobs at the ends, two sockets in the middlePiece size - small (see picture)Difficulty level - smooth sailingQuality - good quality, no peeling pieces or imcomplete cutsThis was so much fun! It is good for anybody, but great for Austen readers. You work the puzzle, and as you do you find characters and scenes from Austen books. Whoever designed this really knows Austen's stories. The illustrated characters are minor character as well as main characters. There is Darcy and Elizabeth at Pemberly; Willoughby carrying Marianne after she sprains her ankle; Lydia and Kitty Bennett flirting with soldiers, and much, much more. The picture is colorful, and stuffed with details. Normally I would be bugged by the lack of variety in piece shapes, but I enjoyed this so much that I can overlook that flaw.

I love to do puzzles, and I'm almost a Ravensburger purist. This puzzle was excellent. It was very fun to do because of the variety of colors and patterns. The pieces interlocked beautifully. I had no trouble moving sections that were assembled outside of the puzzle frame. I would recommend this without hesitation.

Loved this puzzle. Relatively easy, high quality pieces, and so loved finding and reading about all the characters.

If you enjoy doing puzzles, this is a good one. Will check more of his puzzles out in the future.
