Reader Glicky sends in this awesome link to Pride and Prejudice recast as a zombie bloodbath. I’m not even sure this is real, but I so hope that it is.
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies — Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features the original text of Jane Austen’s beloved novel with all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie action. 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.
Oh. My. God. Swoooooooon.

They’re selling in on Barnes & Noble.com (release date not until May 15, though), so it must be real.
Me wants this real bad. At least the May release date will give me enough time to read the original. I know, I’m horrible.

Yes, I can see Darcy as a zombie hunter. Or maybe…he’s one of them!

I’m glad others share my enthusiasm for this title but not so sure I like being called Glicky. It;s way too Pollyanna-ish for a zombie enthusiast!

Shouldn’t it be vampires?

This is just what I’ve been waiting for. Now whose going to take over for Jamie Lee Curtis in the movie version?
