Pride and Prejudice with dragons

July 16, 2017 by Malin Leave a Comment

Ever wondered what a fantasy version of Pride and Prejudice would be like if the countryside was full of dangerous supernatural creatures like direwolves, gryphons, lamias and banshees? Where the most respected and revered members of society weren’t just idle nobles, but devoted themselves from youth to training hard and hunting down these dangerous monsters?

Elle Katharine White clearly wondered the same thing, and before you think this is just another quick cash-grab like Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, where the original story has pretty much been kept word for word, with some zombies and sword fighting thrown in for good measure – it’s not. Ms White has reimagined the story and made changes here and there, but to anyone who knows the source material, there isn’t going to be any massive surprises. Part of the fun of reading this book was instead to see how she had changed, reimagined or tweaked the story.

Full review on my blog.

As of posting this, the book is on sale for $1.99, for those of you who are interested.
