Read that and tell me there's not a great game in there. For my money, the best undead/zombie books I’ve read are David Wellington’s Monster Island/Nation/Planet series.

Zombie games and zombie survival movies yes but love stories noooooooooo! Twilight works because vampires have some human emotions and werewolf are human for the most part.

A few years ago no one cared about them but now they're everywhere. I wonder what will be next. Mummies? Yeah it’s weird how zombies suddenly became the big thing.

Then you might as well call them the same thing.

Puts the monster back in vampire. His zombie series, starting with "Monster Island", aren't too shabby either. But friendly zombies aren't anything new... the movie "My Boyfriend's Back" came out in 1993. I do agree, however, that zombies are absolutely everywhere now.
