I just got the book today as a birthday gift and just started it about 30 minutes ago, so far it's great. Very excited about reading the rest.

Great book. It has some of the creepiest scenes I've ever read before.
I'm very interested to see how they are going to pull the movie off.

Yay!
New zombie survival fan here.
Both World War Z and Zombie Survival Guide by Max Brooks are brilliant. They will be making a movie based on WWZ soon I believe.
Heres the concept art for the film:

I've also got them both as audiobooks, also very nice voice acting. Even includes legends like Mark Hamill!
This site has a pretty cool yet unfinished (so far 7 episodes) set of audio (pretty much audiobooks) podcasts, that you can also download to listen. Be sure to check it out if you're a hardcore zombie fan.

I know this is specifically the 'WWZ' thread, but if anyone knows of similiar good works, please tell me!

I don't think there are any other works like this. The Zombie genre is overall very underused, but I could recommend taking a look at the Walking Dead comic.
Funny thing, everytime I hear something about North Korea in the news my mind races back to what happened to North korea in WWZ, entire population simply vanished, imagining millions of Zombies trapped underground.

i bought this a couple of months ago but havent been able to finish reading it for some reason
i think i just got sidetracked by getting back into book club and reading other things plus writing
its awesome though[the parts that ive read] i like the beginning where the people recount their first encounters with the zombies
