Narration Concering Books Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Graphic Novel

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER—NOW AN EYE-POPPING GRAPHIC NOVEL OF MANNERS, MORALS, AND BRAIN-EATING MAYHEM
 
It is known as “the strange plague,” and its unfortunate victims are referred to only as “unmentionables” or “dreadfuls.” All over England, the dead are rising again, and now even the daughters of Britain’s best families must devote their lives to mastering the deadly arts. Elizabeth Bennet is a fearsome warrior whose ability with a sword is matched only by her quick wit and even sharper tongue. But she faces her most formidable foe yet in the haughty, conceited, and somehow strangely attractive Mr. Darcy. As the two lovers meet in the ballroom and on the battlefield, they’ll soon learn that nothing—not even bands of ninjas, hordes of flesh-eating zombies, or disapproving aunts—can stop true love.

Criticize About Books Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: The Graphic Novel
I read this book as part of a cross-genre reading challenge that I'm doing (graphic novel - check). I haven't read many graphic novels, nor have I read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, although Pride and Prejudice is one of my favorite books. As a foray into the graphic novel genre, I think I would have been better served going with another book. I don't know how closely the graphic novel stuck to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, but I found myself disliking characters that I really liked

Um, this wasn't great. I didn't like the fact there were basically no changes to the storyline, just some zombies thrown in... and one more ball joke and I would have thrown it across the room. But then I feel harsh to the artist if I rate this low... so I just won't rate it at all!

One star for astoundingly bad art by Cliff Richards (Buffy the Vampire Slayer comics). The sketchy black-and-white drawing appears quite incomplete. Despite the setting of 1813 England, the young women are drawn with a too-modern, extremely commercial standard of beauty, and they all look exactly alike. Imagine Victoria's Secret models with collagen-plumped lips and cat-eye makeup wearing modest gowns and carrying katana swords and you've got the picture. Truly, I often couldn't tell the young

As a Jane Austen fan, I really did try to like this book. Surely any exposure to Jane Austen's books would be good for our generation. This book has a great opening line: "It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains." It is a wonderful play on the original words. Unfortunately the graphic novel continues downhill form here. I could not connect to any of the characters because they all looked so similar. One can blame the artist for

This was an early birthday present from a friend--I gave her the novel of the same name for Christmas. Despite rumors to the contrary started by an unnamed party, I enjoyed reading Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice when I was in high school, mainly because I always liked smart-assed women--god help me--and the sarcastic Mr. Bennet.Having already read Seth Grahame-Smith's Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, I was curious as to how he would mix zombies with the time-honored classic. It seems today's

You know I really enjoyed the written version of this work. I thought it was witty, humorous, and so completely absurd. And even though there was very little original additions to the text I still found myself laughing out loud at the idea of the Bennett girls fighting zombies in their empire waist dresses and stockings, all while still following the incredibly strict rules of modesty and decorum. Yet this graphic novelization completely fell flat of the original PPZ which was so disappointing

Rating: 3I thought that I was going to love this version of the book because who doesn't love a good zombie, but I just couldn't connect with it. I guess I'm just a fan of the classic and adding zombies wasn't the right move for me. lol The art was excellent and the way the author adapted the story for a zombie fight was awesome. So maybe one day I'll try and read it again.
