544298 Just wondering, should Zombie Survival Guide be read before reading this book, or does it not matter?

287912 Doesn't matter. This book stands alone, it has very little to do with Z.S.G.

400915 Yes, read ZSG first, as WWZ is slightly (and cleverly) meta-referential.

ZSG's historical accounts also prefaces WWZ's stories.

160142 I read them the other way around (World War Z, then Zombie Survival Guide) and enjoyed both.

283735 Should be okay, but I myself read ZSG first, and would not have it any other way. There's more fun reading WWZ with the illusion that it's a continuation of ZSG.

Nophoto-u-25x33 I'd been looking forward to it, but ZSG was a disappointment after reading WWZ. I wish I had done the other way around, or had just skipped ZSG altogether. WWZ is plenty good enough to stand on its own.

743198 I also read them in this order and was a little bored by the Survival Guide, since it mostly covered material that had been covered in World War Z. If I had it to do again, I would read the Survivial Guide first, but I would also say that you could skip it altogether.
