Terrible. Terrible. Simply terrible. I don't think I've ever said this of any of the books on here, but this was a terrible book and a disappointment. I know there's a recent trend to graphic novelize anything and everything, and I honestly thought making the P&P&Zombies novel into a graphic novel was a SUPERB idea. However, it was a major letdown. The illustrations were great, but not really in a graphic novel format. I'm not sure how to explain this-the characters were sometimes barely distinguishable and the illustrator was NOT good at expressing action or dialogue. He (Richards) actually managed to CONFUSE me. Sometimes a character would be having an internal monologue but there was no way to tell that; in other words, half the time I thought the characters were insane for talking to themselves or hard of hearing for not understanding how other characters were bashing him/her out loud. Other times the text was a lighter shade so you could tell that other characters weren't supposed to have heard that. It was weird. And whoever did the choosing of what text to keep did an abominably poor job. I'm pretty sure there was hardly anything left of Jane Austen's original writing (not completely true-the kiss-off scene between Darcy and Elizabeth is still pretty stellar. I exaggerate because the book bothered me so much), and what is left has been chopped to pieces. Some of the dialogue was so badly put together it seemed as though multiple conversations were happening at once. It was just sucky.
