Embark on a journey through the stars with Pride and Prejudice in Space, a vibrant and exquisitely illustrated reimagining of a classic of literary fiction.  This fresh take on a beloved story intertwines the elegance of the Jane Austen novel with the adventurous spirit of sci-fi books, creating a unique reading experience for fans of both genres-and perfect for readers of Pride and Prejudice and Zombies

Elizabeth Bennet lives on a small moon in the Londinium lunar system with her parents and four sisters. While she dreams of piloting a starship rather than settling down with an eligible man, her world turns upside down when the handsome Mr. Bingley docks the Netherfield StarCruiser on the neighboring estate. The arrival thrusts the Bennet sisters into the bustling asteroid field of the system's wider society, and Elizabeth's aspirations are suddenly in flux. Drawn into the orbit of Mr. Bingley's friend, the proud Fitzwilliam Darcy, Elizabeth is determined to dislike him despite his ten thousand aurum per year.
Can the Bennet sisters navigate the perils of love and space? Will Elizabeth avoid the collision course she's on with the formidable Mr. Darcy? This tale of scifi romance for women explores timeless themes of love, pride, and prejudice, set against the backdrop of the infinite cosmos.Pride and Prejudice in Space features stunning, colorful chapter headers and an array of interior art. With over 60 full-color illustrations and designs, readers will be captivated by this new world-from maps and brochures to digital message logs and pages pulled from the Bennet sisters' journals and sketchbooks.

Join the ranks of the best genre fiction with this exquisite blend of sci-fi fantasy and classic literature timed for the 250th anniversary of Jane Austen's birth (Dec. 16, 1775), the perfect occasion for re-examining the beloved classic through a new, and hyper-futuristic, lens. Jane Austen Fan Fiction (JAFF) has been around since the 19th century, and Pride and Prejudice in Space continues the tradition of reinvention, heralding a new era with its fresh and feminist vision of the great novel. Whether you're a fan of sci-fi, , Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, or scifi romance for women, this hardcover adaptation will make a treasured addition to your collection!
