I like the way Max brooks uses dramtic language like "the time has come to hunt the hunters." i'm a sucker for language like this. although its really cheesy it has a very bad *** effect. It reminds me alot of Bruce Willis movies like die hard. although they are not the finest forms of literature they are very entertaining.
Max Brooks Zombies remind me alot of these zombie ants that we read about in biology. the ants are taken over by a parasite, which controls all of there muscles. this is just like the virus in the zombie survival guide. the parasite forces the ant to climb up a tree and hang aproximatley 32 inches off the ground. Its amazing to me that a parasite could know something like how high it was off the ground.
"On the attack describes several strategys for killing zombies. the most interesting is "the barricade." This is gathering abunch of barbed wire and cars and things, luring zobies in and, over powering them with heavy artillery and incendiary weapons. this strategy rally shows max brooks "bruce willis" side. its a very cool idea and sounds like alot of fun.
I would really like to write a book like this. it requires lots of imagination and a very creative writing style.
