Read the book. @tiki That's sort of sad. They'd probably have it if it was made into a movie. I'll bet they have 'The Right Stuff' BTW, Brad Pitt bought the rights to WWZ. Apparently it's in 'Pre-production' whatever that means. @ack, Alkaios

The book has a happy ending.

**Spoiler alert!**

We win. Read the book.

BTW, Brad Pitt bought the rights to WWZ. Apparently it’s in ‘Pre-production’ whatever that means.

Damned kids today. It's not like it's an obscure book, it pretty much defined a form of non-fiction. Max Brooks was intentionally adopting Studs Terkel's narrative style of this specific book to lend realism to an impossible scenario. It could almost be considered a parody of The Good War. He used the same trick with the Zombie Survival Guide, which was presented in such a deadpan manner that it actually got me to consider the defensibility of my house against the undead. Pretty neat. But seriously, dude, read a book. Something without unicorns or spaceships on the cover. ack – The Good War!
