REVIEWED: This Means War - Zombies Vs. Robots anthology EDITED BY: Jeff Conner PUBLISHED: March, 2012
Love this anthology! Cool concept - just as the name implies - a collection of stories pitting zombies against robots. Violent and thoughtful, gruesome and funny, this collection of stories provides a wide-range of possibilities in the near-future in which technology aids our ceaseless struggle against the undead. The book itself is beautifully formatted with color illustrations to accompany each story. And what stories! The authors bring in some of the best short fiction I've read in a while. Including Steve Rasnic Tem, Joe McKinney, Lincoln Crisler, Norman Prentiss and others. Editor Jeff Conner is applauded for this highly-recommended collection.
