Zombies: A Record of the Year of Infection by Don Roff and Chris Lane
As always I love everything that’s done in journal format with the undead. I don’t know why but it always gives me the vibe that you are reading the words of someone who didn’t make it which makes it that much better. Even in the cases where you know the author survives at the end of the story since it is found as a journal it doesn’t feel that way. The idea that this is from a scientist who is documenting what he is seeing of the undead during his attempt to survive is even better.
The year is 2011, and what starts as a pervasive and inexplicable illness ends up as a zombie infestation that devastates the world’s population. Taking the form of a biologist’s illustrated journal found in the aftermath of the attack, this pulse-pounding, suspenseful tale of zombie apocalypse follows the narrator as he flees from city to countryside and heads north to Canada, where he hopes the undead will be slowed by the colder climate. Encountering scattered humans and scores of the infected along the way, he fills his notebook with graphic drawings of the zombies and careful observations of their behavior, along with terrifying tales of survival. This frightening new contribution to the massively popular zombie resurgence will keep fans on the edge of their seats right up to the very end.
