World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max BrooksMy review
rating: 4 of 5 stars
From early rumours of outbreaks of "African Rabies" in China and South Africa, to panicked evacuations and disastrously inept military reactions, to entrenchments and quarantines in safe zones to the final total war and recovery, this book gives a complete history of the war with the undead. The author Max Brooks presents this book as a series of interviews with participants in the war, telling their stories from different perspectives - refugees, soldiers, politicians and survivors, and gives a critique of Governmental inertia and complacency.
This is a companion volume to 'The Zombie Survival Guide', and envisions the worst case scenario presented in that book, namely a full scale global zombie apocalypse. Frighteningly believable.

Next on my list as I'm working through said 'The Zombie Survival Guide' however I'm not a big reader and tend just to keep the book in my notebook bag as a reference manual 'just in case'
