Summary
"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 hear.
This Heirloom Edition of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies includes a new preface by the author, an afterword by Dr. Allen Grove, professor of English literature at Alfred University, and new scenes of gratuitous zombie mayhem.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Big disappointment
The idea, clear from the title alone, is fantastic, but the book just doesn't deliver. I didn't laugh once. One to avoid.

Don't bother
I was really excited when I heard there was going to be an Austen-Zombie book, but it's just the original story with a couple of zombie scenes thrown in, and a lot of crap about the Bennet sisters training with a martial arts expert. Absolute b*****s. And the film is no better.

Not for me....
The unaltered pride and predjudice would not have been my cup of tea - so maybe not all down to the zombie pasting in parts that I found this pretty hard to listen to and a large part due to the fact that pride a predjudice, for me, is a pretty boring and outdated - even with the zombies its still pretty dull.....

More Love and Romance than Zombies
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
Story could be cut and would have been a much more enjoyable story.
What about Katherine Kellgren’s performance did you like?
Performance was excellent and the only reason i did not give up.
What character would you cut from Pride and Prejudice and Zombies?
The stuff around the younger sisters was painful a bit more done to liven this up would have really helped the book.
Any additional comments?
There are some truly funny parts to the book and the bits i enjoyed i really enjoyed but there were just not enough of them.
