I read it after seeing the movie, so I was surprised to see there were a lot of differences between the two. I guess the movie was actually a melding of two separate books?
Either way, HORROR!!! :-)

I read it years ago as a recommendation from the man I was dating, who is now my husband. I loved the book, and was very disappointed that they strayed so far from the original plot line. Although I like Will Smith as an actor, it was more interesting by far to have humans turn out to be the legend.







Here we have it, Walking Dead fans who are still mourning Glen's death, the grand-daddy zombie novel to rule them all. I Am Legend by Richard Matheson:
An acclaimed SF novel about vampires. The last man on earth is not alone ...
Robert Neville is the last living man on Earth ... but he is not alone. Every other man, woman and child on the planet has become a vampire, and they are hungry for Neville's blood.
By day he is the hunter, stalking the undead through the ruins of civilisation. By night, he barricades himself in his home and prays for the dawn.
How long can one man survive like this?
