I adore this book. I think it’s incredibly unique, and marvelously well researched. Somehow, Brooks manages to use the vessel of a zombie apocalypse to address the military machine on an international scope to maximum efficacy, but more than that, as a way to address the core of humanity: perseverance. I’ve read this books numerous times, and despite it being a story about zombies, it’s the humanity of it that always gives me pause.
