Produktbeschreibung

Bennet sisters are enjoying a peaceful life in the English countryside. They idle away the days reading, gardening, practicing instruments, and daydreaming about future husbands-until a funeral at the local parish goes strangely and horribly awry. Suddenly corpses are springing from the soft earth-and only one family can stop them.

Rezensionen

Zombie-centric plot required to measure up to standards of both Austen and horror fans no easy task. Now a New York Times Best Seller, the book seems to have struck a chord with both. Techland

It s a romp of a book. McClatchy Newspapers

Mixing taught horror-movie action with neo-Austen meditation on identity, society, and romance, this happy sacrilege is sure to please fans of Grahame-Smith's original mash-up. Publishers Weekly

This is a must-read for the growing legion of alternate-Austen fans. Booklist
