Max Brooks' World War Z:An Oral History of the Zombie War is one of my favourite novels of all time, and while I've made no secret of my disdain for the movie adaptation (blasphemy!), I will happily gobble up anything else that's written by him (zombie-themed or not).
The Harlem Hellfighters: A Graphic Novel is slated for release in April 2014. The 369th Infantry (of which the Harlem infantry in WWZ is loosely based off of) was an African-American regiment from Harlem and one of the most decorated regiments during WWI. Brooks shares their obscure tale.
Illustrated by Canaan White.
Cool cover. I have World War Z and plan on reading it soon.
ReplyDeleteWorld War Z is up there as one of my favourites. If you like it you should definitely give the audiobook a try too. There are some AH-MAZING narrators for that book!
