I indeed thought it was an interesting book and I plan on reading it again sometime. Yeah some of the stuff is weird and cliche, I even remember that scrawny hikinomimi (or whatever it's called) otaku guy finding a short katana (tanto?) or something like that, and it's just... dumb. The feral children thing is also incredibly stupid; people deciding to live like zombies even though they're technically alive? Then there's the whole 'fake cure' thing that gets a guy super duper rich even though it does nothing. Can't remember the Israel stuff, but the thing with the guys with the sub (Chinese) hooking up their ship's engines to some kind of archipelago community to give them power is pretty cool, then they chill there and are treated extremely well for providing power to them.

This is the most important part, though... it's this book that introduced me to the song 'I was Only 19' by, what was it, the Rumjacks? Anyways, absolutely Godly song, didn't even know Australia had a part in the Vietnam War, and for having introduced me to that song I will always be grateful to some degree of World War Z.

I also found the Zombie Survival Guide to be very entertaining in my early-mid teen years. I recall at the back of the book where it has historical fiction short stories of encounters with the undead, there's one scenario in Canada, specifically BC I think, where this one woman with an M1 Carbine ends up cornered but with slow and careful aim and no small amount of self-discipline, she dispatches... what... 13 of them with her 15-round mag? Something like that. Pretty cool read.

That surprises me, but it actually makes perfect sense, because horseshoe theory is true.

What's the point to your post? Have you considered making less threads?

This book was part of the impetus of the 5 year zombie craze we are in. Whatever you can say about this guy, he does unique stuff with tired material. The battle of Yonkers is a great set piece as is the siege of Scripps college to the theme of Avalon by Roxy Music.

IMO this was the best zombie series... until ayy lamo showed up in the last book

>>9620329
Yeah, I'll admit I liked it. Very imaginative POVs.

>>9620329

It's a shame they'll never be a tv series based on the different POVs desu. Chink submarine is the best from memory though second to the Marine describing Yonkers and the new tactics afterwards. The whole book isn't especially amazing but i liked it in my mid teens

Does anyone know of other books that have a similar vibe or are written similarly.

Zombie Survival Guide is better. I especially like the part about knights slaughtering zombies believing they were cannibal peasants possessed by the devil. World War Z's snarky jibes at Bush and the Iraq War made it hard for me to take World War Z seriously.
