Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies Book
One
By Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith
Elizabeth Bennet has trained her
entire life to fight against the unholy plague of unmentionables that have
overcome the English country side. Along with her sisters they make a fearsome
assembly of warriors, but not only are they warriors they are still young women
who attend balls and tend to their duties. During one of the balls the girls
attend Miss Elizabeth is introduced to the arrogant Mr. Darcy. Through a series
of events the two soon become close against Elizabeth’s own wishes.
Most of us know the story of Pride
and Prejudice, with five movie adaptations and over twenty million copies sold
of the book itself it’s hard not to know the story, but Seth Grahame-Smith has
taken the classic story to a whole new level. I didn’t think I would enjoy this
book as much as I did, even though you know the story the changes that have
been made only seem to improve the overall experience. Seth Grahame-Smith takes
the original story and adds zombie encounters here and there and a few
innuendos making a classic romance novel into and action packed comedy on top
of one of the most amazing love stories. I absolutely loved this book it’s definitely
worth the read even if you have yet to read Pride and Prejudice. If you’re not
a fan of regency romance novels this book is a great introduction into the
world of Jane Austen so when you wife or girlfriend swoons over Mr. Darcy you’ll
know why.
