[Graphic Novel] Recorded Attacks by Max Brooks

Recorded Attacks by Max Brooks (author of World War Z) is a brilliant book/graphic novel and I am so glad that I picked it up. It was a random find in Waterstones and on a whim I thought 'why not?' and bought it.

This book takes real life historical events and makes zombies the reason and purpose for their happening. For instance, Brooks claims that the Egyptians removed the brain from the deceased in order to prevent re-animation. There are also examples including the Romans, who, as Brooks suggests, built Hadrian's wall (cutting off England and Scotland) in order to stop zombies coming onto their land.

Considering I study History at Univeristy, I think this is a brilliant idea for a graphic novel. History and zombies? What a book for me! I really enjoyed reading it. This is one of my favourite zombie graphic novels and I would very much so recommend it to any zombie fan.
