Review of 'Pride and prejudice and zombies' on 'Storygraph'
2 stars
Well, the zombies are amazing -- for brief periods of time you can actually believe they're alive, and then they start talking about balls and marriage and you realize you're seeing the soulless husk of a human. Oh wait, those are the main characters.
I enjoyed the bits where zombies killed or ate the humans. Unfortunately, this didn't happen about 10 pages in, and some of the characters even made it through the entire novel, despite their blatant stupidity and unworthiness to life.
Apparently there's a version where none of the characters die at all -- that would really suck, as just about the only thing that kept me going was the fervant hope that Elizabeth and Darcy would die slowly and in great agony.
