UPDATE - Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - RECOMMEND!

Having finished another pass at the original PRIDE and PREJUDICE last week, I picked up the sample pages today to see if I might want to purchase the zombie version for the Kindle2. I thought it'd be cutely funny at best, but a description of the first attack on the citizens of Longbourn and the manner in which the Bennett family reacted, made me crack up outwardly as I sipped my usual Jamba Protein Berry Workout in front of Starbucks!

I was also treated to these unique illustrations that pepper the book throughout in the most pleasing of ways. I don't want to spoil any of the fun by giving examples of the phrases that made me laugh, but any geek at heart who loves to mix romance and hand-to-hand combat - this book is for you.

I am only 5 chapters in, but I now am looking forward to the physical prowess of Miss Elizabeth Bennett which will continue to entice the affections of the equally proficient-in-the-deadly-arts Mr. Darcy. Zombie - love - GO!
