Recommended Reading… or, The Zombie Apocalypse Of July

It should be no surprise to friends and fans that I have a taste for the undead.  Well, maybe "taste" isn't the word we're looking for.  An "appreciation."  Ha!

I grew up on the original Romero movies and excellent knock-offs like The Return of the Living Dead and Army of Darkness.  What were my parents thinking?  Heck if I know.  Why would you let a ten-year-old boy read books like The Stand and Lucifer's Hammer or take him to see Alien?  To keep him off the streets?

In the end, good...
