Featured in our reading guides: Watched The Long Walk? Read the Stephen King Novel, Then These and Gothic Books for October: 12 Dark Reads for the Season
The zombie war, told as an oral history by the survivors who lived through it.
A United Nations researcher travels the world collecting accounts of the global outbreak: the first cases in China, the panic, the battles that were lost, and the long fight back.
Brooks writes it like journalism, and the documentary format makes it far more convincing, and chilling, than most zombie fiction.
Reader note: Contains graphic violence.

Praise
-
An 'oral history' of the global war the evil brain-chewers came within a hair of winning. Zombies are among us, turn on your television if you don't believe it. But, Brooks reassures us, even today, human fighters are hunting down the leftovers, and we're winning.
