Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes by T. J. P. CAMPBELL

Pride and Prejudice and Superheroes

A Mash-up Classics/Sci-Fi Novel by Jane Austen and T. J. P. Campbell

“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single woman in possession of a free mind, must be in want of a superhero.”

Living in rural England in the early 19th century, Elizabeth (Lizzy) Bennet had always known she had rather special abilities. She soon discovers their depth and extent and that they are more than special abilities, they are incredible superpowers. Further, she discovers that a select group of people including her father and her sisters all have differing superpowers of their own.

Amid the chaos of discovering all these superpowers, Lizzy’s mother remains as steadfast as ever to win her “War of Marriage” and marry off her daughters, and she becomes especially motivated by the arrival of a handsome and, importantly, rich man to the Bennets’ rural township. A certain Mr Bingley, no less, who soon introduces the even richer, Mr Darcy, much to Mrs Bennet’s delight. These men turn out to have superpowers too, of course.

But where did these superpowers come from? Were they a gift from God?

No.

They were a donation from an alien race known as the Equalisers.

The price for these donated superpowers is that Lizzy and the rest of the superhero group need to use them to attempt to defeat an approaching starship armada of all-conquering warlike alien invaders called Kasts, invaders who intend to decimate the human race as they have done to every alien race they have come across.

So how can Lizzy and her fellow superheroes defeat the intergalactic all-conquering nefarious Kasts? Moreover, amid the alien perilousness and superheroeness of it all, will Regency pride and prejudice still rear its ugly head, and will Lizzy and her four sisters find love despite their perilous mission?
