"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains." So begins Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, an expanded edition of the beloved Jane Austen novel featuring all-new scenes of bone-crunching zombie mayhem.

Not very violent imho
Revisado: 08-16-16
I feel that even though this book is supposed to be mostly about zombies, it doesn't focus on that at all. I understand that the story is about Pride and Prejudice but I'm also fairly certain it could have been done quite nicely otherwise. Still for what it was, it was well done. It IS a parody after all and I did laugh at some very fun moments in the story.
I enjoyed thoroughly the performance of the storyteller, all her different voices and intonations were great. I loved how very Austen it sounded throughout the entire story and how from beginning to end it had the same enthusiasm.

Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 97
Shortly after moving into an old house Coraline discovers a big, carved, brown wooden door at the far corner of the drawing room. And it is locked. Curiosity runs riot in Coraline's mind and she unlocks the door to see what lies behind it. Disappointingly, it opens onto a brick wall. Days later, after exploring the rest of the house and garden, Coraline returns to the same mysterious door and opens it again. This time, however, there is a dark hallway in front of her.

Perhaps I'm biased

I feel like I probably would have enjoyed it more had I read this when I was younger. I kept expecting it to be scary but it never got that far for me and I have to say that disappointed me a bit. Coraline is a good character however, and despite her constant repetitions that she is an explorers, she manages to not get tedious in the way other child protagonists do.
As for the storyteller, I'm pretty certain that the way this story was meant to be read was somewhat blandly in the beginning to underline Coraline's boredom and partial isolation. Seeing as Neil Gaiman is bad at dynamic storytelling and the storyteller became quite lively with all her voices and enjoyment of the text later on. However, I was very much regretting my purchase up until the first meeting with Coraline's Other Mother.
I quite enjoyed the audiobook regardless.
