Title: Zombie Novels
Post by: Jeopardy on Tue 04/08/2009 15:55:01
I've just finished the following books:

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies By Jane Austen and Seth Grahame Smith
The Zombie Survival Guide and World War Z by Max Brooks

All of them were amazing, and World War Z is now one of my all time favorites, if you haven't read go pick up a copy.

I was wondering if anybody here knew of any other books worth reading on the subject of Zombies.

The walking dead.

Not a book but a massive collection of comic books which is ten times better when it comes to zombies.

Have you got through them all yet Jet?

Awakening is also good if graphic novels are your thing.

Yeah, the Walking Dead is my favourite zombie fiction. Awesome stuff.

I read Pride and Prejudice and Zombies recently. It was...weird? I kinda liked it, but I had to keep asking my girlfriend how the original related to it.

Marvel Zombies is pretty awesome.

I liked walking dead quite a lot at first, but then the story and artwork really went down the crapper.  I guess it's no surprise that it started when Tony Moore quit (he only did the covers from issue #7 on).

I wanted to buy Pride n prejudice, but the more I read the comments on Amazon, the more I felt that the idea was brilliant but the actual writing was not so.
Btw L4D is the game for you.  ;)

I think I might give the "Walking dead" a try and I heard some things (and even more by surfing the net) about World war Z but strapped for cash alas no buying yet.

Oh, and my contribution, which has a mix of everything (steampunk+vampires+zombies+Lincon) and made by Mike Mignola (the creator of Hellboy) - The amazing screw on head - it is a cartoon, but it's also for adults and has the amazing Mignola style in it. They only did one half hour pilot, but still it's great.
