Not Surpringly, the World Didn't End Yesterday



but if the zombies instead of the religious fanatics bring the world down soon, The Daily Pilot (a LA Times website) published an amusing round-up of zombie books you'll want to have on hand. One of them is mine:

Similarly, with "Zombie Notes," author Laurie Rozakis presents a parody study guide to many world classics such as "Romeo and Juliet and Zombies," and "A Tale of Two Cities Overrun with Zombies."
