Pride and Prejudice and Zombies was written by Seth Grahame-Smith (and Jane Austen, of course). That does indeed have a great cover, and let's be honest, the basic gag is pretty funny. The problem, of course, is that it takes more than a single gag to carry a novel. The end result is a mix of Austen and horror which is neither as good as real Austen, nor as good as real horror, and humour stretched way too thin. It ended up on my "maybe I'll finish it sometime" pile.
