I started it after reading original oeuvre by Jane Austen.
If Seth Grahame-Smith added zombies and some changes to the story, it takes relatively few liberties with the general course of the plot.
It's a bit like a recipe to which we add a personal touch.
In this case, this is the living dead, ninjas, code of honor, of Shaolin masters of gun handling, swords and katanas, in England in the nineteenth century.
At times, I had the impression from reading this book to see scenes of Kill Bill Tarantino ... sometimes, I thought seeing Bruce Lee vs Chuck Norris.
I laughed several times revisited by discovering the fate that had been reserved for certain characters, especially Wickham ... then Charlotte and Collins.
Just for their "new" destiny treated with a rather black humor, it's worth reading this volume.
I also loved the new treatment of this paragraph where the first married sister show of vanity his ring, while she is in the car, a neighbor ... I do not say more, but it's cruel. ..but so funny at once.
And what about this fight dojo between Lady Catherine de Bourgh and Lizzy. It is to discover!
This book is amazing by this marriage between a certain loyalty to departure of the oeuvre (paragraphs completely preserved) and insertion of zombies, dojo, fighting, life in society whose codes, conversation, habits and customs are necessarily different (playing to vault or coffin or spiny-pastor at the gaming tables).
The author, however, could go further and take more liberties; more than once we can ask the question if you read the original or a revisited version so some passages are long retained.
Where are the zombies? we are tempted to think ...
As for the story between Elizabeth and Darcy in this volume, rather it is maintained; you would think that their pride, their pride finds a perfect expression in the exercise of martial discipline and its code of honor.
I find this aspect only makes it more authentic history.
In this book we find the gore and black humor. Avoid it if you are not a fan of the genre, but to devour as a cauliflower head (read the book to understand the allusion) if you like.
Overall I loved the offbeat side of this book.
I am curious to see if there will be a film adaptation! it will be very sporting actresses to honor these ruthless warrior sisters.
