Recently I had a discussion with a human who informed me that THE ENEMY is not a zombie book. This particular human argued that these particular cannibalistic creatures are merely sick with a disease that makes them crave human flesh as opposed to being corpses who crave human flesh. Apparently I need to study the zombie phenomenon more carefully because I fail to understand the distinction. However, as a scientist I won’t allow my personal reservations to cloud my scientific judgment. Perhaps the book you recommended on your blog, THE UNDERTAKERS: RISE OF THE CORPSES by Ty Drago, will provide me with further understanding of what constitutes a zombie. Your contribution to my research is appreciated.Morzant the Alienhttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/_irpq6yWGewE/TFmKlIjmZLI/AAAAAAAAAVw/1LGEEE0ioCg/s1600/Morzant_Mortimer.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157187582203174896.post-21488392638405336302011-05-24T14:16:25.465-04:002011-05-24T14:16:25.465-04:00I am very glad you stopped by my blog because if y...I am very glad you stopped by my blog because if you hadn't I would not have been totally entertained by this review on The Enemy. this definitely sounds like a book I need to read and share with my middle school students.

In that case, certainly I’d be bound by scientific integrity to travel whatever distance necessary to retrieve THE FEAR. Yes, very intriguing indeed.Morzant the Alienhttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/_irpq6yWGewE/TFmKlIjmZLI/AAAAAAAAAVw/1LGEEE0ioCg/s1600/Morzant_Mortimer.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157187582203174896.post-83602182329840741092011-05-09T22:38:36.669-04:002011-05-09T22:38:36.669-04:00You are probably wise to curb your Earth trotting ...You are probably wise to curb your Earth trotting impulses, at least until you understand said fascination, but sometimes it's more fun to give in to impulse, especially regarding books. And if it's books AND travel, well...I say all bets are off. And you could TOTALLY justify it as essential Earth literature studies.<br /><br />(I do wish they'd release those UK titles sooner over here!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157187582203174896.post-68036184564025494202011-05-03T11:12:01.602-04:002011-05-03T11:12:01.602-04:00You’re very welcome.

I admit I find myself eagerly awaiting the June 14, 2011 release of the prequel, THE DEAD. The books in the series are first released in the United Kingdom. While I’m currently residing on Earth’s North American continent, my ship could have quickly transported me to a location where THE DEAD was available many months ago. I thought it more prudent to fight the impulse to obtain a copy of the book until I understood my newfound fascination with these fictional beings. That understanding alludes me still; therefore I will justify my reading of THE DEAD this June as essential to my studies of Earth literature. It may be that those studies will require me to travel to the UK next autumn to retrieve a copy of the third book in the series, THE FEAR, rather than wait for its later release in the United States.Morzant the Alienhttp://2.bp.blogspot.com/_irpq6yWGewE/TFmKlIjmZLI/AAAAAAAAAVw/1LGEEE0ioCg/s1600/Morzant_Mortimer.jpgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8157187582203174896.post-52721158558547205762011-05-02T19:11:03.183-04:002011-05-02T19:11:03.183-04:00It sounds too chilling and thrilling to miss!
