Learn The Zombie Code This September

The Zombie Code: Keys to Unlocking Your Undead Destiny by Mark Raby will be coming out early this September and from the ‘look’ of the book zombie fans will be in for a treat. While I haven’t been able to read it myself yet I do have to say the novel itself looks as if it could prove to be highly entertaining.

Delving into a world where the living dead really do walk the earth, this exploration turns the myth of zombies into a frightening—and hilarious—reality. Whether in an alternate universe or 100 years into the future, this entertaining examination predicts that the invasion of the undead will indeed happen, putting everyone at risk of either knowing a zombie or becoming one. Instead of creating an apartheid society of living and undead, this far-out study suggests that the future human race integrate themselves with zombies, simply accepting the inevitable loss of life in the long run. Revealing a unique take on zombie acculturation, this consideration introduces zombie magazines, zombie yoga poses, and even recipes for brain casserole—including the stealthiest ways to get to that elusive human cranial meat. Concluding with a Zombie IQ test to determine one’s future as a member of the undead and an extensive dictionary of words defined in a zombie context, this is an uproarious look at what life would be like in a zombie’s shoes.

My only concern though is that this looks to be another ‘intelligent’ zombie novel. While I could be wrong as it is a bit vague on that I really wish there had been a clear separation of zombies and ‘intelligent undead’ before this trend had taken too strong of a root in the horror community. It’s clearly too far gone for it to change and I will fully admit to enjoying the idea of the undead having intelligence, just mentally I don’t factor them directly in as zombies. Maybe I’m getting old and cranky and just want zombies the old fashioned Romero way.

Don’t get my cynicism steer you wrong though. As I said initially this book does look and sound like it’ll be a blast and an entertaining read I’m just preaching.

I mean with products like that being featured within the novel and just the concept that humanity accepts our fate of being turned into the undead it’s going to be an enjoyable ride. Honestly that’s one of the largest selling points to me. Humanity ‘accepting it’s fate’ and mixing in with the undead. I’m really curious as to how that is going to play out since I can’t imagine how he’s going to write this and make it semi-believable but I sure as hell want to find out!
