I saw this coming…

While googling to see how long I have to wait to dive in to Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters by Jane Austen and Ben H. Winters (Sep 15th BTW), I came across the following books. Immediately I started banging my head in to the wall and crying out “Why? Why?”.

Adventures-of-Huckleberry-Finn-and-Zombie-Jimwotwpbgz

Mr. Darcy, Vampyre (Aug 11th) by Amanda Grange

Vampire Darcy’s Desire: A Pride and Prejudice Adaptation (Dec 1st) by Regina Jeffers

The War of the Worlds Plus Blood, Guts and Zombies (April 30th) by H.G. Wells and Eric S. Brown

Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Zombie Jim: Mark Twain’s Classic with Crazy Zombie Goodness (July 10th) by Mark Twain and W. Bill Czolgosz

Most likely these are quickly produced books to cash in on the fad. Coincidentally, I am asking myself why did I not cash in on it when I had the chance. But, whatever.
