Product Description:
The timeless tale continues... The most popular and beloved American historical novel ever written, Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind is unparalleled in its portrayal of men and women at once larger than life but as real as ourselves. Now bestselling writer Alexandra Ripley brings us back to Tara and reintroduces us to the characters we remember so well: Rhett, Ashley, Mammy, Suellen, Aunt Pittypat, and, of course, Scarlett. As the classic story, first told over half a century ago, moves forward, the greatest love affair in all fiction is reignited; amidst heartbreak and joy, the endless, consuming passion between Scarlett O'Hara and Rhett Butler reaches its startling culmination. Rich with surprises at every turn and new emotional, breathtaking adventures, Scarlett satisfies our longing to reenter the world of Gone With the Wind, and like its predecessor, Scarlett will find an eternal place in our hearts.

I loved Gone With The Wind, but "Scarlett" was a close match. I absolutely loved it and couldn't put it down. Well done! I didn't want it to end.

I finished reading Gone with the Wind, wondering what would happen to Scarlett and Rhett. When I learned there was a sequel, I eagerly picked it up, even though it was written by a different author. I had many expectations when I began reading. The first thing I noticed was that it drew me in very quickly, and Ripley had obviously made a considerable effort to imitate Margaret Mitchell's writing style.
However, as the book wore on, the plot seemed to drag and get extremely boring at parts. ... Read More

Of course, there's no possible way to follow Gone With the Wind and be as powerful. Despite that, I greatly enjoyed this novel. It gives me some closure to the Scarlett/Rhett saga, albeit not what Margaret Mitchell likely would have imagined. Take into account that this is not Mitchell, and just enjoy it for what it is, a well-written alternate ending to your favorite film. The movie version was even well-done, there is no comparison to GWTW, but they're not attempting to match or better the prequel, ... Read More

I think many of the customer reviewers here are basing their comments on their feelings about GWTW (which I also read) and not on the merits of Ripley's work. While GWTW is a great novel, I don't feel that it is a sacred text so I didn't mind that a sequel to it had been written.
Ripley's work is well-written and her research impressive. I have lived in Charleston and it is clear that she spent a lot of time there. I recommend this book. It's really entertaining!

After reading Rhett Butler's People, I have a much greater appreciation for Alexandra Ripley. While her novel, Scarlett, may not be GWTW, at least she tried, and was occasionally successful. This book is FAR SUPERIOR to Rhett Butler's People by Donald McCaig. FAR SUPERIOR.
