Is there such a thing as a good zombie book?

[Randy M.]

I was curious about Southern Gods after reading This Dark Earth, but that's a little disappointing.

Each chapter in TDE takes a new character's perspective, but they all end up being interrelated somehow. Things devolve quickly and humanity ends up being the real bad guy.

I also don't mean to insinuate that I've read a whole bunch of zombie books, I've only read a few, but TDE's the best of those.

Milage may vary, Seak. I thought it entertaining (scroll to post #50), but not as good as I'd hoped. Since it's stemming from Lovecraft, I'd be more inclined to recommend Laird Barron's The Croning or one of Caitlin Kiernan's novels.
