Books that involve ZOMBIES.

Wow. Just finished Pride and Predjudice and Zombies. It's fantastic. It has all the greatness of Austen, plus gorey zombie fight scenes... Elizabeth Bennet is kick-ass.

Anyone else read it?

O_O OHMYGOSH amazing. Must read it. Apparently there's something like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter is in the process of being written. Should be awesomesauce.

Read it, loved it, can't wait to get the other books they intend to publish in a similar vein. Very Happy

How can anyone NOT be hooked after reading the FIRST LINE.

I should totally read this for wide reading.. are you allowed to? Or for the Jane Austin competition Very Happy

By MissEevee. 05/08/09, 08:20 am

I picked it up and started reading, but the Pride and Predjudice bits made me so bored I didn't get past the second chapter.
One day I will read it all

I'm assuming you can. Heyyyy.... I needed another male author to! Thanks for reminding me...

I cannot believe that Chaface said that it was poorly written and that the two texts did not match up. It's AMAZING emo

The best zombie book is World War Z, hands down.

By Sockcat. 26/09/09, 01:20 pm

Hmmm, never read it. Who is it by?

By level10. 27/09/09, 02:11 am

Max Brooks. It's a collection of interviews from survivors set in the aftermath of a world wide zombie outbreak.

By Sockcat. 28/09/09, 10:17 am

Ohhhh *looks it up*

Sounds very very much like my kind of book. I will put it on my list of books waiting to be read, yes?

By deceptivemagick. 28/09/09, 12:25 pm

/SAME HERE!

By level10. 30/09/09, 10:52 am

Glad to hear it. We must rally against the forces of the undead.

By Le_Saboteur. 01/10/09, 11:22 am

Ooh, I've looked at Pride and Prejudice and Zombies a few times but haven't actually picked it up... I'll have to next time I see it! Is it completely re-written, or does loosely follow the events of the original novel (+zombies)?

World War Z is really good. Very... different. It feels very authentic, if, y'know, we survived apocalypse by zombie.

By Sockcat. 01/10/09, 12:04 pm

Cooolll

P&P&Z does loosely follow the plotline of the original... But seeing as there is ultra-violent zombie mayhem, it is rather awesome. I was in Borders yesterday, incedentally... And guess what I saw? Sense and Sensibility and Sea Mosters. But then again, it doesn't have zombies... so...

By Le_Saboteur. 02/10/09, 02:07 am

Sea Monsters are still awesome, though.

Thought I should add The Walking Dead to your zombie list. It's a comic, but it's great.. Really well written (though expensive to collect!). READ EET.

EPIC. BOOK.

I loved it so much I had to pay like $10 when I finally returned it to the library sweatdrop

It deserves to be read at least three times. ^.^

LOL. I saw that at Borders yesterday.
Considering I had to drag my way through reading Pride a Prejudice, I don't think I'll read it xD

By MajorNightside. 02/11/09, 04:38 pm

Loved P & P & Z. Onto reading S & S & SM
