At midnight, the folks at Quirk — who brought you the best-selling Jane Austen mashup Pride and Prejudice and Zombies — announced that they’re back with the next book in the series, Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters, which goes on sale Sept. 15 (complete with 15 illustrations — we’ve brought you two of them — and a readers’ discussion guide). Quirk editor Jason Rekulak, the creator of the series (”I just thought it would be really funny to desecrate a classic work of literature”) recently said that he didn’t want to go out there “with the one-millionth vampire novel that’s going to be published this year.” P&P&Z’s Seth Grahame Smith did not write this sequel, since he recently left the franchise and signed a hefty contract with Grand Central for Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. I talked to the series’ new author, Ben H. Winters, last week.

    • wait wait wait...Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter...did they rip that off of Party Down? Theres an episode where one of the characters gets offered the role of a young vampire hunting Abe Lincoln heh.

      Anywho I will buy this book. I read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies which was good but couldve used more zombies IMO. I hate Jane Austen and PPZ was the first time I was able to finish one of her stories because...well zombies make everything better. ;)
