[The Darcy's 07] • The Darcys · as the Years Go By

As Time Goes By ends the seven part series of the Bennets and the Darcys. They take Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcy through courtship and marriage along with their friends and family. Elizabeth’s sister Kitty marries Richard Fitzwilliam, Darcy’s cousin. Jane of course marries Charles. The series goes through the trials of dealing with Caroline Bingley and George Wickham and the always naughty Lydia Bennet. Children are born and grow into a big part of the later novels. The Darcys and the Bingleys become owners of thoroughbred horses and travel to find more, even to Kentucky and Virginia, and have a grand time watching them race.

This last novel, As Time Goes By, continues the theme of their love and companionship. It does not end in an ending but in new beginnings.
