The format and ideas are superb. It is missing something for me, but the investigative journalism style and the globetrotting and lore reveals a little like environmental storytelling can in videogames.

This is very much a different kind of book. I was reminded of Howard Zinn's A People's History of the United States while I was reading it. I guess because it told the story of the zombie war from the points of view of the people in the action and not from a (fake)historical point of view or from the view of the people that made the decisions that changed the world. The stories of the war are told from the people that was there. The book feels real in a way that few books do and that is where the actual terror of the book comes from because it seems so believable at times. It is an awesome books and I would highly recommend it to any zombie fan, any horror fan, or anyone looking for an unconvential story.

I could tell the book was great and redefined the zombie genre but man, it got slow. After playing Nazi Zombies maybe I just come to expect fast zombies. Similar to Training Day, i'm sure that people didn't know police are corrupt in 2001 but watching in 2022 it feels obvious and lacks impact.
