When I first read this book I was skeptical because I’m not a fan of zombie anything. Let me just tell ya; I loved it.
My perception; I’ve been told I’m wrong but oh well. I read it as the war has been going on for sometime and a journalist explored the origins of the virus within a time line. I imagined it like the Interview with a Vampire. He interviewed tons of individuals and it jumps from person to person location to location explaining how the war went down.
What I enjoyed the most is perfectly realistic tone; both serious and sardonic at the same time.
I feel like the approach is truly from a reporter with military knowledge; providing a pragmatical experience, if there was a zombie apocalypse. As a therapist I also enjoyed how it hit on the psychological effects on the individual, the citizens, and the military personnel.
I enjoy books that allow for the tears and laughter.
