Hey

Have to say if you haven’t read these books…. DO SO…..

They are far beyond any other Zombie book I have read…. (apart from the Walking Dead Comic Series by Robert Kirkman) the detail is amazing, and apparently they are making World War Z into a film (or so the local comic store geek tells me).... anybody else heard any news on this?

LOVING THIS SITE!!

Ohh - yeh I’ve got the Zombie survival guide - I’d recommend this book too - it’s great!

Not heard anything about a film yet…

Glad to hear you’re loving the site. We’re gonna be relaunching soon(ish) with a new look and some new features. Gonna be looking for bloggers actually…

Hi,

Thought you might be interested in this - did a bit of research…

“In a high-six-figure deal, Paramount Pictures acquired screen rights to the Max Brooks novel “World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War.” Brad Pitt’s Plan B will produce Brooks’ follow-up to satire “The Zombie Survial Guide”“.

Quoted from http://www.variety.com/article/VR1117945332.html?categoryid=13&cs;=1

It is apparently due out sometime in 2008 - This is major news - if the film stays accurate to the book, this could be the best zombie film ever.

Much excitement!

...and a quick check on IMDB:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0816711/

OMG Thoes books are amazing.

The ZSG is my bible! no word of a lie, i carry it with me in my Umberla corp bag, and read it every day.

im obsessed with it, i even plan my escape just incase a zombie outbreak happens when i’m out. checking out weapons of oppatunity, exits, and hide-outs.

tell me if anyone else does this?

Consider me interested, if this is still the case!

And yes, these books are amazing! I read World War Z earlier this year and it blew my mind. I was raving about it so much I’ve had to lend it out to someone, and I already miss it and want it back

Both great books.  I almost wish that WWZ would be made into a Cable TV series.  Then it could be gory and not have to be shortened.  I read WWZ and thought that each chapter would make a great episode of a show.

Still looking for bloggers….? I may be interested providing I have time.  Lord knows I’ve read tones of zombie fiction.

Yup, interesting news articles or items of interest relating to zombie events - all very welcome.

Pretty simple really, write an article, email it to me along with an accompanying image, and I will check it over and then publish it on the site, with you as the author.

im literally half way through the survival guide and im loving it. will probably read WWZ when im done. also been reading the graphic novel walking dead series. do u guys know any more great zombie fiction?

indeed these books are in my top 5 however me and another fellow of the undead are concerned that they wont capture the true amazment that the books bring….How the stories are told how the charactures are portraid
I would like to see em as movies but sometimes i feel some books are left for the imagination of the readers..“I am legend!” but we wont go into that :(

I cried on the tube while reading World War Z. It was amazing!

I LOVED The Zombie Survival Guide! I liked it so much I gave it to my friends as Halloween gifts. ( They think I’m crazy for some strange reason). I wasn’t really sold on WWZ. I liked Patient Zero by Jonathan Maberry a bit more.

I am reading The Zen Of Zombie by Scott Kenemore. It is kind of a fun book to read.

it truly is a great read

Not only is the “Zombie Survival Guide” a great read but it’s most popular… just the other week at the camp I work at we got a new group of campers and at least 25% of them had the book with them. None the less the whole camp staff was proud to have them there with us at camp.

Ah, nice. I have read and own both of these books. Excellent works I must say. Max Brooks is a wonderful author. I hope that if they do make a movie it is an amazing one.
