Zombies and Vampires and Books - Oh, My!

Are you already reading Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, in which author Seth Grahame-Smith takes Jane Austin's classic novel and salts it with scenes featuring zombies? Well, someone is reading it because the book is in the number three spot on The New York Times trade paperback fiction best seller list. While zombies do sound intriguing, it is not enough to lure me into another go-round with Pride and Prejudice.

I may, however, fall victim to this author in the future. The New York Times reports that Grahame-Smith has two more books in the works, the first called Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. While I declared myself through with vampires after Lestat, and completely ignored Stephenie Meyer's The Twilight Saga Collection I have to admit: Lincoln as a vampire hunter sounds like a book that could find a place in my beach bag.
