book list #31 - Walking Dead 13 & 14

This season, people have been complaining incessantly about The Walking Dead tv show.

They say it moves too slowly, they say that there aren't enough zombies. (Don't you love my use of the universal "they"? Who are these people?)

I feel like, from my view, these are people who clearly haven't read the books. Yes, ultimately, The Walking Dead is about zombies, but what it is really about, is what people do when everything around them is gone. Everything they knew, every social structure, everything that was familiar, is all gone. How do you react? That's The Walking Dead.

The comic books are clearly much farther ahead and books 13 and 14 are equally dark and twisty.

These two collections delve even more into the human psychology of it all as the group settles into a gated community situation.

I won't give much away, but if you've been reading this long, these don't disappoint. If you haven't started reading - get thee to book 1.
