Zombie Survival Guide Response
When the undead army has risen and all shit hits the fan what should you do? Don’t fear Max Brooks is here. He lays out every detail you would need to know in order to survive one of the worst threats humanity could face. In the beginning of the book Brooks describes what zombie are. Though most book deals with zombies suffering from the Solanum instead of voodoo. The differences between the two of them are outstanding for example the voodoo zombie can recognize family members while the Solanum zombie can’t. He talks about the best way to combat zombies.

Offshore oil rigs are the best place to go since it is virtually impossible for zombies to get to there. The only hassles with the rig is shutting off the drill and controlling the rations of everything you may need.

Air travel is the best way to get around if you have a clear landing and enough gas. These are just a few of the guidelines you should follow to survive a zombie apocalypse.

I found out that it was a virus that turned people into zombies immediately after it has entered the human body. The virus uses the cells of the brains' frontal lobe for duplication, terminating them in the process. The zombie becomes a new thing not able to remember the person they used to be or people they used to know. After learning what the word was I was able understand the
