Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: adding much-needed zombies to the Austen classic
A review. The reviewer doesn't like Jane Austen.
I couldn't finish it. But I expect if you were the kind of person who loves both Austen and zombies, this book would just plain knock your socks off.
But check this out:
And Quirk Books, the publisher of P&P&Z, was kind enough to give us an exclusive link to the first three chapters online for free, so you can make up your own mind
First three chapters of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies
I don't think the book is on sale yet.
The Guardian moving from print version entirely to Twitter-based version: [link]

it is so wrong that news like this makes me work avoidant....and yet, that is the exact effect.
I love how the Guardian article ends:
According to unconfirmed rumours, Jim Buckmaster, the chief executive of Craigslist, will next month announce plans for a new system of telepathy-based social networking that is expected to render Twitter obsolete within weeks
I don't think the book is on sale yet.
It's out. I saw it at Booksmith yesterday.
Heh. From the Obama/BSG/Onion article:
"When we spoke last month, he said season three was his least favorite because some of the episodes with Helo and the Sagittarons—and pretty much anything that involved Cally—were boring and didn't advance the plot," Afghan president Hamid Karzai said. "But I told him that when you watch it all on DVD, and you don't have to wait a whole week for a new show, those peripheral episodes actually add new color to the already established world."
I
know
we've said things like that about BtVS S7.
I should probably email Obama that he could look into watching the Sarah Connor Chronicles, particularly because it's on the bubble.
The problem with watching BtVS S7 on DVD or tape is that having already watched it once, I really don't feel the impulse to ever do so again (excepting "Conversations with Dead People" and "Chosen").
