'Zombies Vs Robots: No Man's Land' is the latest short story anthology in the shared universe series started in comics. Featuring great writers, the collection features lots of great stories, and art between stories by Fabio Listrani. I can't think of a story in this collection that I didn't enjoy.
In a post-apocalyptic world ruled by zombies and the robots supposedly built to protect humans, being a human can be risky. These stories range from one about a community at the beginning of the zombie outbreak to one that is safely under water. There is a man that is a priest in a cut off community and a man who has saved a school bus full of children many years ago. There are questionable motives by robots who assume their own programming or are programmed by others. The humans find themselves stuck in the middle and definitely in no man's land.
This series continues to come up with new inventive stories. While not for the faint of heart, they definitely deliver. With authors like Chris Ryall, Mark Morris and Jonathan Maberry, and others, it's a solid collection.
I was given a review copy of this ebook by Open Road Integrated Media and Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this book.

dodgson's review against another edition

I’ve enjoyed other Pinter works, and the acclaim for this one is mighty, but I have to admit it missed me entirely. The absurd rambling is a lot more palatable when it's coherent, at least (e.g., the speech to start Act 2). When the characters are interrupting themselves repeatedly with contradictory information, it's just a mess.

I gave this five stars because I'm such a fan of the way Pinter writes - even if I haven't really got a clue what he's going on about.
At first I started thinking it was some kind of post-traumatic stress thing happening, then I remembered who I was reading and thought more likely it was just some elaborate ploy that all the characters are involved in. Still, who knows?
Anyway, I really enjoyed the writing and the characters, and can't wait to see it come to life when I watch it performed on Broadway next week :D

Trapped in the mind in no man's land in memories. Comedy of menace. Let's drink to that.

Saw live in NYC played by Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, Billy Crudup, and Shuler Hensley. That counts as reading the play, right...?

first saw this play a bit drunk and very tired and was super confused so reading it was illuminating, at least as much as any pinter play could be
