Review: Comic adaptation of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Seth Grahame-Smith

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies - with a title like that, you know perfectly well what you are going to get. Especially if you have, like me, read Seth Grahame-Smith's previous Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and know his knack with mixing horror themes with older, historical or fictional, stories in which you'd never have expected to encounter zombies or vampires.

Review: Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter by Seth Grahame-Smith

With a title like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, you kind of expect the novel to be tongue-in-cheek, action-adventure in the historical fantasy/fiction genre.
