Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
May 18, 2009
Do you have trouble getting into classics? When your teacher announces the latest required read, do you groan a little? Then this is the book for you. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith is exactly what you might expect. It takes Austen’s classic, Pride and Prejudice, and adds a dash of zombies, ninjas, Shaolin monks, and the Seven Cuts of Shame.
The comedy of manners has never been more fun to read. Follow Elizabeth Bennet as she protects the Vicarage from the embarrassment of her sisters’ flirtations, as well as from the countless hordes of “unmentionables” shuffling through the English countryside.
Read on as the romance unfolds between Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy, and the mighty pairing they make while dispatching the zombies to the flames of Hell. You’ll get the feel for the classic novel and satisfy your craving for chaos and horror!
If zombies aren’t your cup of English Breakfast tea, try the movie Lost in Austen. This unrated movie is about a young woman named Amanda who trades places with Elizabeth Bennet. Amanda ends up in regency England and Elizabeth comes to the modern day world. The question becomes, will Amanda change the course of Jane Austen’s classic story? And what about Elizabeth, will she be forever changed by living in today?
Both titles are able to be put on hold. Reserve your copy today!
