In this remake of the beloved classic, our fiesty heroine Elizabeth Bennett spars against the arrogant Mr. Darcy while fending off hordes of flesh-eating undead. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies features Jane Austen's original story with new scenes written by author, Seth Grahame-Smith. Pride and Prejudice and Zombies also features illustrations done in the style of the original and the cover artwork demonstrates a unique re-imagining of a classic image.
