11 Best Zombie Books of All-Time

There are plenty of zombie books out now that aren’t all the same, with many of them bringing unique ideas and concepts to the genre. It all started with the classic I Am Legend by Richard Matheson back in the 1950s, and the zombie genre has exploded ever since.

Below, you’ll find 11 of our absolute favorite zombie books (some series). I should probably note that we didn’t include any zombie comedies. Instead, we chose books that were focused on the horror.
