Pride and Prejudice and Zombies.
"This may be the most wacky by-product of the busy Jane Austen fan-fiction industry—at least among the spin-offs and pastiches that have made it into print. In what’s described as an “expanded edition” of Pride and Prejudice, 85 percent of the original text has been preserved but fused with “ultraviolent zombie mayhem.”"
By far the coolest thing I will see today.

I have been following this for a while via IO9 and because I have an innate fear of zombies. I won't read it myself, but I hear it is good.
I actually saw a woman reading this on the train in NYC about 2 weeks back. I would have asked if she was enjoying it, but it was the morning commute, and you're bound to get beat if you disturb folks at that point...I know that's the mood I am usually in! ;-)

I'm a little behind the times and have to wait for benevolent people to pass along a lot of things, especially when it comes to zombies. Just was never a fascination to me, and since I only have a 41% chance of survival in a zombie apocalypse, then here's hoping it never occurs. :)
In any case, it has to make the story better, seeing as how this was one of the most boring novels I've ever read.
