Hillary's Review of Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks

by Max Brooks and Ibraim Roberson

Those who don’t learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

From the Stone Age to the information age, the undead have threatened to engulf the human race. They’ re coming. They’re hungry.

Don’t wait for them to come to you!

This is the graphic novel the fans demanded: major zombie attacks from the dawn of humanity. On the African savannas, against the legions of ancient Rome, on the high seas with Francis Drake . . . every civilization has faced them. Here are the grisly and heroic stories–complete with eye-popping artwork that pulsates with the hideous faces of the undead.

Organize before they rise!

Scripted by the world’s leading zombie authority, Max Brooks, Recorded Attacks reveals how other eras and cultures have dealt with–and survived– the ancient viral plague. By immersing ourselves in past horror we may yet prevail over the coming outbreak in our time.

I LOVED World War Z then I discovered Max Brooks has published a LOT over the years. I am sooo happy that now I can go and read them all.

This tells about how the first recorded Zombie attacks started. To start off with the artwork is fanfuckingtastic. I fell in love with the artwork. It really added to the story.

The story itself took real history and added zombies in it. I was amazed at how effortlessy Brooks was able to combine real history and the zombies. The world building is out of this world. You do not have to really suspend any disbelif to get the story. It combines them so well that you start to wonder WHAT IF???? that adds to the spook factor IMHO.

I used to have a hard time believing that I would like grahic novels but this now I am hooked. I am definitely going to read ALL of his books now.
