Steve Hockensmith Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls is a prequel to the top selling Pride and Prejudice and Zombies from last year. While I am a hugh fan of Hockensmith's Holmes on the Range series, the Pride;Prejudice;Zombies will no doubt obtain an equally large fan following. Hey Steve, this better just be a break from your Holmes series!
It is interesting how similiarily to writing his Cowboy Holmes/Zombies mirrors the two diverse genres of Arthur Conan Doyle with the original Holmes and yet authored children books no less. But probably Sharyn McCrumb would be a more acurate comparsion with her mystery series and Bimbos of the Death Sun. Either way, Hockensmith is sure to add more avid readers to both of his series.
In this new prequel, the zombies hold sway in England. So if your like your teenagers and zombies buy the book. Maybe it will take a 'bite' out of the teenagers/vampires mix.
