Das geht bei Zombies so dermaßen gut. Früher haben wir im Freundeskreis auf jeder Party irgendwann damit angefangen, über das Was-wäre-wenn nachzudenken.\r\n\r\nUff - Du kennst World War Z - das Original-Buch nicht?!? - Böse Wissenslücke.\r\n\r\nNein, nur Scherz. Aber wenn Du das Zombie-Genre an sich magst, dann musst Du das Buch wirklich gelesen haben:\r\n\r\n[Max Brooks: World War Z - An Oral History of the Zombie War](https://www.amazon.de/World-War-Oral-History-Zombie/dp/0307346617)\r\n\r\nAuf Deutsch: Operation Zombie.\r\n\r\nIch empfehle auch die komplette Hörbuch-Fassung auf Englisch, gelesen von einer fabelhaften Cast (Max Brooks selbst, Nathan Fillion, Alan Alda, Martin Scorsese, Jürgen Prochnow, Simon Pegg etc.).\r\n\r\nDas Buch ist mit dem Film nicht zu vergleichen. Es spielt nach Beendigung der Pandemie. Ein UN-Mitarbeiter reist um die Welt und sammelt Augenzeugenberichte über die verschiedenen Stadien des Ausbruchs - von den ersten Fällen und Gerüchten über die große Panik bis hin zur Bekämpfung und \"Sieg\" über die Zombies. Dabei geht er auf die politischen, sozialen, ökonomischen und psychologischen Folgen des Ausbruchs ein. Dabei spielen auch die geopolitischen und historischen Gegebenheiten der einzelnen Staaten eine Rolle.\r\n\r\nDas Buch ist das Beste, was ich vom Zombie-Genre kenne, habe es zweimal gelesen und in der Hörbuchfassung schon mindestens viermal durchgehört (aktuell mit meinem Freund beim Puzzlen). - Spannend, ergreifend und mit viel implizietem Horror. Die einzelnen Geschichten sind wirklich ergreifend (z.B. Geschichte eines Soldaten, der von Anfang bis Ende dabei war und den Strategie/Taktikwechsel des Militärs miterlebt).\r\n\r\nWenn Du Dir den Spaß machst, kannst Du danach auch den \"Zombie Survival Guide\", ebenfalls von Max Brooks, lesen. Er hat den Guide zwar als erstes geschrieben, aber im Grunde ist es ein Ratgeber für die Zivilbevölkerung, der auf den Erkenntnissen aus WWZ beruht.","subreddit_name":"FragReddit","author":"MiouQueuing"},{"body":"You might try picking up [World War Z](https://www.amazon.com/World-War-Oral-History-Zombie/dp/0307346617) by Max Brooks. It's written as a series of very easily digestible interviews--each \"chapter\" lasts no longer than a few pages. Even if you're not into the whole zombie thing, it's excellent as a tale of societal downfall and rebuilding. It manages to touch on sociology-political, military, and other themes. \r\n\r\nDon't be put off by the movie starring Brad Pitt. The two share literally nothing aside from the title.

It hands down beats any zombie book I've ever read, and best of all its being developed into a movie (eeeeek!). If you like 28day later, you'll love this book, its super realistic, the author did a shit-ton of research prior to writing the book, interviewing politicians, getting military documents, visiting foreign countries, everything.
