Was in love when I heard the concept of the book, namely remixing work where the copyright had expired. Note that I would not have approached such a combined unless I was either not ever intending to read the book or was already familiar with its contents. Seeing the movie would not have been justworthy enough, but I had listened to the audiobook of Pride and Prejudice.
The execution, itself, was good in many respects. However, it only add these small, dead elements on top of the story. It would have been more thorough to have added an additional plot that related specifically to the zombie cause. Since this was not included, the book is not exactly worth the read. I feel like I have wasted my time reading an abridged version of a book and cannot really say I read Pride and Prejudice at all.
Will definitely read some of the other Grahame-Smith books though. Just have to do a bit more background research beforehand.
