The Walking Dead - The Books
Dravenae:
Just bought The Rise of the Governor for 6 Euro. It should be here next week. :)
I'm looking forward to reading it! I hope it sparks more of an interest in reading. I have always wanted to get into reading, but usually half way through the book, I loose interest. For example, Gates of Fire by Steven Pressfield, I read 3 quarters of that book, but for whatever reason, I just got bored of it. I went from loving the absolute shit out of that book, to being terribly bored of it in a matter of 1 chapter. >:(
I hope this book sparks a long lasting love for reading books. I like listening to audio books, in particular, The Help, Angels and Demons, How to Kill a Mocking Bird.
I also have a interest in Max Brooks World War Z. I read the first few pages on Amazon and was hooked! Totally different from the movie. The movie looks crap! Athlete Zombies never caught my interest, bar 28 Days later Zombies, but I think I just love that movie because it was filmed where I grew up and to me, the film is a piece of art.
Went completely off topic there. LOL.

I never got into The Walking Dead, though my girlfriend loved it. Haven't seen World War Z. Not a huge zombie fan, but the track star zombies from 28 Weeks Later and Dawn of the Dead are pretty scary :o

I don't if I'm late to the party, but I just saw that the third and final book in the series is on Amazon. Old news?

About 100 pages left in The Rise of the Governor... The book is fucking awesome!
