Top 10 Best Zombie Books

Zombie books are making a killing, pardon the pun, both in online book sales and the traditional book stores. The popularity of the best zombie books including the zombie survival book can be attributed to the increasing interest generated by these flesh-eating animated creatures the world over.

If you are a zombie fanatic then you must have already read the zombie survival guide. But if you are like most diehards, then one zombie book is not enough to satisfy this growing curiosity about these rotting corpses.

Here is a list of the top 10 zombie books that every zombie fanatic should read:

1). Grey Dogs: Zombie Survival

This book by Ian DG Sandusky talks about an epidemic that spares no one. Once you get infected with the viral infection, you a zombie which is by far more dangerous than the grey dogs.

2). Cell

This gory and horrific Stephen King novel is the world-famous author's tribute to zombie films. The book, which talks about terrorism and technological warfare and the use of cellphones to wipe away humanity's brain, is so riveting readers would not be able to put it down until the last page.

3). The Zombie Survival Guide: Complete Protection from the Living Dead

This fully illustrated guide by Max Brooks is a must-have for everyone who wants to understand how the zombie works and how it can be outwitted in case of an attack.

4). World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War

Another must-read book from Max Brooks but this time, he talks about the zombie war and the stories of people who have survived the outbreak.

5). The Official Zombie Handbook- The Ministry of Zombies

This book by Sean T. Page reveals that the undead have been with humans even before the start of history. What is interesting is that the outbreaks in Rome and in ancient Babylon have all been documented. Everyone needs this guide to survive a zombie outbreak today.

6). The Zombie Survival Guide: Recorded Attacks

Max Brooks makes it to the top 10 list for the third time with this short story collection of different zombie attacks that have been recorded. The stories are really short so it is an easy read.

7). Zombies: A Record of the Year of Infection

Don Roff talks about an unknown illness that turned out to be a zombie infestation. The suspenseful story of the 2011 zombie apocalypse is made known to the world through the journal of a biologist who noted the zombies' behavior along the way.

8).Day by Day Armageddon

J. L. Bourne's new thriller will be a treat to zombie fans. The undead has risen to claim the planet starting with the United States. The story is narrated by a US Naval officer through his journal.

9). The Zombie Survival Guide: How to Live Like a King After the Outbreak

Etienne Guerin DeForest's book will teach you how to survive the zombie apocalypse in style. There is a caveat though; read this book only if you have a strong mind.

10). I Am Legend

This book by Richard Matheson owes its popularity to the movie which stars Will Smith. It is still possible to enjoy the book even if you have already seen the movie. After all, any tale about the plague and zombies will always be an interesting read especially when you realize that one man provides hope for mankind.

Expect more bestselling zombie books in the future for as long the people's interest in zombies remain unfazed. And from all indications, they never will.

There is no doubt there is a zombie craze happening right now throughout the world.

For some it is a fascination and love for great horror. For others it's a conscious effort to prepare for the zombie apocalypse. Whatever the case may be for you - we've got you covered.

How to Stop Procrastinating and Start Prepping

According to a recent poll 57% of readers have less than six months worth of food in storage, with 20% having less than one month. I have to admit, being more than a little stunned by the results of the poll neutral.

How could such a high percentage of readers, of a survival blog (my blog!), have such small amounts of emergency supplies on hand? After giving it some thought I could only come up with one conclusion - Procrastination.

I'm sure some readers will pitch a fit in disagreement. They will argue that it's not procrastination on their part but lack of funds. In some cases this maybe correct, but for the most part, it's just an excuse for putting off what they know needs to be done.

Procrastination is the persistent habit of putting off doing things you need (and want) to do. It's always easier to put off what needs to be done, instead of actually done it. Or so we thank - excuses come easily as we rationalize our self defeating acts of procrastination. I used to have the same problem.

Why people procrastinate and what to do about it

There are many reasons why people procrastinate when it comes to prepping, but it usually falls within the criteria given below...

Fear - Fear of failure, fear of not knowing where to begin, fear of making a mistake, fear of wasting money - these are are the most common origins of fear, leading to procrastination and lack of action.

The cure is to have a plan. Make a list, know what to store, how much and how to store it. Don't worry about wasting your money, you need to eat right? All you're doing is buying what you need in advance. Buy, store, eat and replace.

If you decide to store and use basic foods such as wheat, beans, corn and rice you'll actually save money, be healthier and possibly live longer...

Negative Self-Talk - Our mind can be our worst enemy, defeating us through negative self-talk even before we begin. Most of the time we do this without knowing it. Using phrases such as "I should" and "I have to" automatically sets objections in our mind. No one likes being forced, even by ourselves.

These phrases make prepping feel impelled, instead of something you want to do, leading to resentment, rebellion and inactivity. Instead of telling yourself, "I should start a food storage program - soon" or "I have to start a food storage program - someday," tell yourself, "I want to start a food storage program - now" or "I choose to start a food storage program - now."

By using the right words in our self-talk we can make conscious choices, leading to positive results and a stocked pantry.

Looking to the end result - When you're starting from the beginning everything seems overwhelming - you have to decide what to store, how much, purchase it and store it, rotate and restock. You worry about space, temperature, light and other considerations. This can be overwhelming.

We all started from the beginning - the important thing is to start. Most of us can't afford everything we need all at once and none of use can acquire all the skills needed in a day. It takes time. Prepping is like putting a puzzle together: One piece at a time.

Perfectionism - Aside from fear, perfectionism is the main cause of procrastination. We want everything to be perfect - if we can't have the "best", we wait until it can be afforded. Unfortunately, for most of us we will never be able to afford those items perceived as being the best, so we do nothing.

It doesn't matter how much you plan, how hard you work or what you do - your plan will never be perfect. Mine isn't. Remember; perfection is an idea, not a reality.

Sometimes you need to go with a less than perfect plan - buckets of wheat, beans and corn instead of the latest freeze dried foods - a single-shot break open shotgun instead of brand X tactical rifle.

Do what you can - now. If you can upgrade later great, if you can't you're still be better prepared than 95% of the population. The important thing is to do it now, while you still can. What are you waiting for - get to it.?
