World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War is about the interviews done by survivors of a plague. The plague stated in China from a little boy who had be bitten from playing around in his village. The doctor that was interviewed, Dr. Kwang, told us how the boy at just seemed so lifeless at first. Then after you thought everything was okay, they boy broke out of his restraints and started going crazy. The plague spread over the whole world and caused people to take immediate action to seek for any shelters. The plague was believed to be rabies that first came from Africa and spread to other parts in the world. The book seems to be all about the interviews of these survivors and the horrible experiences they have had because of it. Losing lost ones, homes, and sanity all because of these horrific creature torturing them.
The part that probably stood out the most to me was what I mentioned above about the boy. I couldn't even begin to describe how I would act if I was in the doctor's shoes. He talked about the skin looked gray and there seemed to be no life in the little boy at all. Also, let's stop and talk about how it's a young boy at that. I know I'm young but just to think if that was a kid I knew seeing him like that would crush me. It only got worse when the boy turned out to be infected and tried attacking the doctor. It's so insane how this author has grabbed my attention and I'm even more intrigued about zombies now. I can honestly saw I'm ready for what's going to happen next.
