"The Living Dead" edited by John Joseph Adams

487 pages

This collection of zombie tales includes short stories from Neil Gaiman, Laurell K. Hamilton, Stephen King, Clive Barker, and many more. Each story is unique and there's incredible variety in the collection as a whole. Some of the tales made me laugh, some made me cringe, and many made me think. There's everything from the traditional make-you-jump gory horror story to tales with political and sociological slants. With the exception of a few, I enjoyed each of these stories. Many of them look at the living dead from an unusual perspective. There's something for everyone here--everyone who likes zombie stuff, that is!
