World War Z...Good Read!

When I was on DG several people I knew were reading World War Z, by Max Brooks. They were all really digging this book. So right when I was about to leave the island I saw it in the free book bin and I picked it up. I had read the first 100 pages when I was in Norfolk but didnt have alot of time or enegry to really get into it until the plane ride here to Kuwait.
I really liked this book. Imagine a world where the dead begin to rise and begin their march to devour humanity.
Right now in the real world we deal with the fact that the War on Terror has made us rewrite all of our war docterines. We are also a country that is trying to keep the war away from our shores.
In this book docterines are rewritten again. The balance of world power dramacticly shifts once more as the war touches every shore. There is no, "lets keep em over there." The dead have risen everywhere!
Told in interview formats from people all over the world as they recap their trials in the Zombie War.
I feel that anyone who is watching the daily tale of our current war will find this book fasenating. If you watch the news daily this book will hold your attention!
Good on you Max Brooks...I liked your fist novel. Lets have another!
Remember everyone...HYDRATE!

Hey, Rob! Glad you made the transit safely. Let me know how the training goes in Kuwait-I think you'll like it (in a sick, twisted sort of way, lol) I had a good conversation with a navy applicant today who was a big fan of Hunter S Thompson! (She had the tattoos to prove it...) Pretty cool.
