Mashups are not my thing. If I would not normally read PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, neither would I PRIDE AND PREJUDICE WITH ZOMBIES, however clever the idea. The retelling of ROBINSON CRUSOE by Peter Clines, mixing Lovecraft and making Crusoe a werewolf, proved a nice exception. If you liked the original, it is fresh, enjoyable retelling. If reading for the first time, it is an entirely new, edgier way to read the classic.
