CK’s Reviews > World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War > Status Update

I feel like it lost steam by the end. When we got to the fighting back part, a lot of the unique concepts/narratives got pushed back in favor of more military-oriented chapters. For me, a lot of the standout chapters were more of the character focused ones and so I wished there were more of that, especially towards the end.

A strong beginning and middle, but the gimmick overstays its welcome in the end.

3.5/5.0

44: ISS Holo Kai

Yeahh a lot of these army interviews kinda end up sounding the same. The author isnt really able to differentiate their voices enough.

43: Siberia

I really liked that chapter. So far I've discovered that I prefer the chaps that delve more into the social/psychological effects of the zombies, rather than just the army/fighting tactics.

Hmm so far I think the concept is running a bit thin. I'm starting to lose interest a little bit.

I think the last few chaps just havent that unique or impressive. That Japan chapter may have been a bit questionable, very stereotype heavy for sure.

Hoping for a really good chap soon, something that switches it up or offers something new.

16: Topeka, Kansas, USA

Damn what a standout chapter, that was intense and so so good.
