I gave this a good rating because I kept thinking about for a couple of days after I finished it. To me that's a sign of good book. It's dark but it's about an apocalypse. To me the ending was not hopeful and while I probably would have done the same thing it was hard come to terms with characters c...

My version is an ebook. I got this as free Friday read from Barnes and Noble and didn't even make it 100 pages. Most of those pages I skipped. Finally gave up when one of the sicker bastards turned a woman's dog into a bomb, got infected with a Happy Virus and gave the same woman a puppy.I love apoc...

This isn't so much post-apocalyptic as during the apocalypse. As the title suggests, this is a soft apocalypse, i.e., there's no one apocalyptic event, there's a series of smaller events that cumulatively lead to the disintegration of society. It's an interesting premise but there are some problems ...

What happens when our government begins to lose it's authority, disease is rampant and unemployment is the norm, not the exception? A "soft apocalypse", that's what. No asteroids, no nukes, no zombies. Just an agonizingly slow decline into chaos.This is the story of Jasper and his "tribe" as they ma...

It's got your basic McGu...

Excellent collection of things zombie. There should be a zombie story here to fit anyone.Outstanding were works by Brite, Schow and Lansdale but the entire book is impressive with no real duds.

This is a great zombie anthology, but I think it would be best read in little chunks every few days or so. I read it all through in one big rush and was completely zombied out by the end. I was afraid that when I started my next book I would be expecting zombies to come shambling into the story at a...

It turns out that you can read peering through the fingers of one hand. I'm totally terrified of zombies, so reading a collection of zombie stories is fun for me. Hey man, we all have our things.Anyway, the collection is pretty good. I didn't read all of them; I mean, who does in a collection of thi...

This was a mostly enjoyable anthology. There were some memorable stories but there were also many, many stories that were bland or otherwise forgettable. None of them held a candle to World War Z. There were a few stories about zombies and politics and a few that dealt with "Dawn of the Dead." O...
