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.

General Stuff
Since January 2008 I have been using this blog to write about the books i've read and other book related news that I find interesting. I also find pirates interesting so from time to time I may blog about pirates. I see this as killing two birds with one stone.

Review Policy
Dear Publishers/Authors,

I am always willing to discuss reviewing you book on my blog. Discovering new authors is one of the things I love about book blogging. However, I do not accept all books for review. If it's not in my usual genre chances are I am going to decline the offer.

A couple of genres I dislike are: Self-Help, YA Paranormal, Hardcore Science-Fiction, and Depressing Memoirs.

Some genres I really enjoy: Pirates, Satire, Pulp Fiction, Queer Fiction, YA Fiction (Non-Paranormal and Non-Gossip Girl-esq) and Comical Memoirs.

Here's the thing. If you e-mail me asking me to review a book, I will always respond and let you know if I am interested or not. If you don't hear back from me, feel free to send a follow-up e-mail. No longer will I just ignore your e-mail.
