Back to business. The book selection for October is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies! I am very excited about this book. I've been dying to read it for months. I have read Pride and Prejudice at least three times, and I think that this is a great edition to a wonderful classic. We couldn't have picked a better book for the month of goblins and ghouls. Happy Halloween!
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains." So begins PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES, an expanded edition of the beloved Jane Austen novel featuring all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie mayhem. As our story opens, a mysterious plague has fallen upon the quiet English village of Meryton - and the dead are returning to life! Feisty heroine Elizabeth Bennet is determined to wipe out the zombie menace, but she's soon distracted by the arrival of the haughty and arrogant Mr. Darcy. What ensues is a delightful comedy of manners with plenty of civilized sparring between the two young lovers - and even more violent sparring on the blood-soaked battlefield as Elizabeth wages war against hordes of flesh-eating undead. Can she vanquish the spawn of Satan? And overcome the social prejudices of the class-conscious landed gentry? Complete with romance, heartbreak, swordfights, cannibalism, and thousands of rotting corpses, PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES transforms a masterpiece of world literature into something you'd actually want to read.Happy Reading!
side note - Apparently Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice is part of the Public Domain. That just means he was able to take her actual words and add his own content to fit. So, this is 80% Jane Austen and 20% Zombie awesomeness. Please enjoy!
