<P>"Variously playful and (un)deadly serious..."</P> ~Times Literary Supplement
<P>"Provides a study of zombies in popular literature, it also becomes a kind of critique of zombie scholarship itself, and by extension, a critique of humanities scholarship more generally."</P> ~Journal of Modern Literature
<P>"An intelligent and highly engaging collection that will appeal to legions of zombie fans, to students in the humanities, and to scholars working in fields that have already been affected by or are now preparing for the zombie apocalypse. It blends entertaining, illuminating, and accessible readings of zombies and zombie culture with unique interventions made from authoritative positions of expertise."</P> ~Julian Murphet, author of Multimedia Modernism: Literature and the Anglo-American Avant-Garde
<P>"There are so many great things to discuss about this awesome science fiction/horror genre, and the The Year's Work team of Commentate and Jaffe tackle it admirably. There are a number of home runs in this collection."</P> ~boing boing
