Now, you all love zombies, right? I thought so. Zombies are a guilty pleasure. I mean, we even have video games and movies about these little monsters. Hell, we even have people building houses and plans for the zombie apocalypse. Seriously, I'm not joking. Anyways, well, the son of Mel Brooks - you know, the guy who made Spaceballs and The Producers - Max Brooks, has unleashed his knowledge of the zombies sub-culture and has made books such as The Zombie Survival Guide, and World War Z.

Not only does he know how to deliver simple stories of pure havoc, but he knows how to throw zombies in the middle. Max makes zombies even more interesting than they already were, and his books surely are must-wants. World War Z, documentating the pseudo-apocalypse suvivors of the zombie war. And The Zombie Survival Guide, a book in all of us science-fiction nerd hearts, a guide to suviving the zombies and preventing you from becoming infected. (No matter what, the AK47 sucks as protection.)

What are your opinion on his books, if you have read them?

Zombie Survival Guide made me change the way I organize shit in my car and house.

Suppose that's the mark of quality.

Brooks is a pretty great writer and I'd love to see him break out of the zombie genre.

Can't wait for the WWZ movie. Also, if you guys ever get a chance check out the WWZ Audio Book. It's pretty fantastic.
