This pop-culture phenomenon is mildly entertaining, at best. It takes the basic, already tedious concept of Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" and sprinkles the undead over it. Unfortunately the undead do nothing to make this story more interesting. Be prepared for the typical pompous assery that made early 19th century literature famous. I guess if you were a fan of Jane Austen and zombies it might be worth $1 to buy at a used bookstore.

In the world of business and marketing minds, there is none more dynamic or prolyphic than Seth Godin.

"Red and Rover" is probably the sweetest, cutest comic strip ever. the way Brian Basset captures the friedship between a boy and his dog is pure magic. Even as an adult when I read "Red and Rover" it makes me miss my own dog and want to go home to give him a hug. Red and Rover picks up where "Calvin and Hobbes" left off. This is a must read for a comic or pet lover.

At first, "World War Z" sounds like just another book about a world being eaten by zombies. The truth is that the zombies are merely window dressing. At the heart of the matter is a story about survival and the breakdown of society. After reading this book I found myself hoping that zombies would be the least of our problems should the apocalypse actually occur.
