Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls (Quirk Classics)

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls - Steve Hockensmith Though intended as a prequel to Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, this is a book in itself. I like the plot twists and the fights, but it didn't satisfy my questions regarding the Bennet's backstory, as I was waiting for the sisters' trip to China (as mentioned in the original Pride and Zombies book), and wondered why the story showed the slightly-fake Master Hawksworth. I don't think it succeeded greatly as a prequel to Pride and Zombies, but as a book/story in itself, it was pretty good.
