World War Z by Max Brooks

“World War Z” is set ten years after the events of a zombie outbreak. The world is a much different place as people still shiver at the memory. The story of the war is told through the eyes of the people who lived through the war. The interviewees range from children who lived during the war to military soldiers to the vice president at the time. You get an in depth look at the politics that went on pre-war, the mass hysteria during the outbreak, what people did to survive and how people dealt with the aftermath. Any fan of anything zombie related would love this read. You get a very realistic idea of how the entire world (not just America) would deal with an outbreak like this and get to experience how persons of different cultures would react. The events are so vivid and detailed it makes you wonder whether or not it is really a work of fiction.
