Hey all,
The World War Z by Max Brooks is fantastic, I am about halfway through it and love how the fictional story is told of world wide devastation by the living dead from many different points of view and the social commentary associated with hitting the mark.
It ranges from a Middle Eastern family escaping something terrifying, but not know what exactly; but are wary of the asylum other countries are offering due to religious conflicts of the past. American soldiers on the ground know what they face but know the military's tactics & weapons are useless against an undead horde. Or a little girls account of their family uprooting from the family home to head North to Canada away from the undead plague only to witness and experience changes within themselves and others when winter closes shut it's jaws and bites hard the survivors.
I am only halfway through the novel and I can only describe it as epic. The scene is set, the theme is thick with the stench of zombies and humanity must undergo a metamorphosis of its own to overcome the staggering armies of the undead.
