A review by frankikaos
World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War by Max Brooks
5.0
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I was aware that it was written in a completely different style to what the film portrayed so, at first, I was a little sceptical, but I found myself getting sucked in to the little interviews and, in most cases, wishing the story of the individual was expanded.
I also found it quite interesting how some of the interviews were tied in with others- for some, it was really subtle and it made me flick back through what I'd already read just to make sure that I was thinking on the right lines, others name-dropped a character or specific place which made it a little easier to follow.
Some of the "interviews" have really stayed with me- I won't say which to avoid spoiling anything- and this is definitely a book that I will revisit.
