Just finished reading this novel by Max Brooks and really, really enjoyed it! Its done as a series of short journalist interviews with survivors of a world spanning Zombie apocalypse which almost wipes out humanity.
A great read with lots of subtle political and social commentary.
Highly recommended!

Excellent insipration for games!! Where did you get your copy? Can't find it at Minatour...
ReplyDeleteI can also recommend the Audio Book of this, it has some great other stuff and pretty good voice acting.
ReplyDeleteI agree though the book is good.
If you are in brisbane you can probably pick up a copy at Borders in the city or Ace Comics and Games.
Oh yeah, the audio book is kewl - there are some free sample chapters available through iTunes too.
ReplyDeleteOwen - you can borrow mine mate!
Scenario wise, the Battle of Yonkers really fires the imagination. A high tech combined-arms US force gets defeated by a shambling horde! I wont leak how though...
