Be a slave to vampires no more!<\/div>\n

Seth Grahame-Smith<\/a> gave us Pride and Prejudice and Zombies<\/em> (which is followed by Ben H. Winter’s Sense and Sensibility and Sea Monsters<\/a><\/em>) and now he slays us with Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter<\/a><\/em>. Grahame-Smith is an author that’s too good to be true. He takes the tried, true and, at times, boring subjects, mixes them with monsters and makes a mint on the awesome aftermath. When the title of your book is Lincoln as a vampire hunter, explanations are clearly not needed<\/a> . So have a look at the book trailer below:

\nAbraham Lincoln<\/strong> using and axe <\/strong>to slay undead creatures<\/strong> of the night. Why wouldn’t<\/strong> we read this book?!?<\/p>\n
