Nathan Bransford - The Forums

Apparently May is zombie awareness month. How come I did not know this before now?

Here are some really awesome zombie websites:

I think I'm going to celebrate by reading some zombie books.

I shall celebrate by buying ammo! :)

Cool! Here are some awesome zombie books:

Feed, by Mira Grant
The Forest of Hands and Teeth, by Carrie Ryan
World War Z
(thats all I can think of right now)

*going to stock up on ammo like Margo!

Ammo! Good idea.

Robin, I have 2 of those on my TBR pile. I will have to check on Feed. Thanks for the recommendations!

Whew - I watched Shaun of the Dead just in time.

This might warrant rewatching it. And then Zombieland. I need to check on my stock of Twinkies.

Nice one, Margo!

And Nathan, you've got red on you.

Zombieland! hilarious and educational.

Thank god someone created a zombie awareness month. I was starting to worry we'd forget about them!

I'll add to Robin's list, although I want to super underline Feed. The sequel, Deadline, comes out May 31st!

The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks by Max Brooks (graphic novel companion to The Zombie Survival Guide)
The Walking Dead graphic novels (and the television show)
Boneshaker by Cherie Priest

And the movie Carriers is the best non-zombie Zombie movie I have ever seen.

Sommer,

I'm reading Boneshaker right now. It's pretty good.

That shirt is awesome.

Shirt.woot has a different shirt everyday. :3 I love that place. It gets a lot of business from me.

Awesome. Awesome, awesome, awesome. :-)

I was all for the original "Pride and Prejudice and Zombies," but I think the imitations by other authors are getting a little too strange. Tom Sawyer, maybe, but Lake Woebegone? Star Trek?
Incidentally, if anybody is a writer of this kind of stuff, may I suggest "Baron Munchhausen"? Maybe even Rabelais or the Old Testament?
