Sci-Fi & Scary
Sci-Fi & Scary rated it 8 years ago
Zombies: A Record of the Year of Infection is a mix of brief journal entries and very detailed ink drawings.The 'reason' for the detailed, comic-book like drawings is that the writer is also a birder. But, honestly, they don't really fit/feel real for what we're supposed to be reading. However, putt...

Although the subtitle says a record of the year of infection it actually only covers 3 months. The book is beautifully illustrated.

Truth be told, I haven't really been interested in reading much other than the back of the tonic bottle after pouring a G&T,* and I've kind of been wallowing in comic books and zombie trash when the mood does strike me. I'm not going to review even half of the books I've read, because so much has be...
