Zombies terrify me. I ended up reading this book in two weeks. As fast as I could. To get through it the way you get through the pain of removing a bandaid.

Despite the zombies, it was a really good book. I thought it was rather well written. I did think it was a touch ethnocentric, but other than that, I really enjoyed it.

The book is a collection of stories told by survivors of the zombie uprising. It's starts at the beginning with the doctor who saw the first case of the infection and follows through with survivors across the globe (and even one from space). The way people reacted as the infection spread seemed very realistic to me and caused me a great number of nightmares since I started reading it. In the end, humanity survives, (Otherwise there'd be no one to tell the stories, right?) but the world greatly changes.

I am going to read the zombie survival guide next. It's by the same author. And perhaps will help me get over the nightmares that this book has caused.
