Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - Jane Austen and Seth Grahame-Smith

First, I must confess, I am not a great lover of Jane Austen -- I know, how can anyone utter such thoughts aloud.... Well, it is not the fault of Jane Austen, rather I have a strong preference for modern literature. As a result, it should come as no surprise that my enthusiasm is underwhelming. This novel was written in the style of Austen with the old English structures and dry humour. It was a good read but not something I expect to read again. I would recommend it to those who like 19th century British Literature enough to allow 21st century writers to have a little fun with it.
