I love the Newsflesh series. It's my favourite zombie story. I recommend it to people any chance they'll give me.How Green This Land, How Blue This Sea is now my favourite part of this series. Set in my home country of Australia, this novella captures the spirit of what it means (and would mean!) to be Australian. I cannot overstate the excellency of this book, it included everything we've come to love about a Mira Grant story - laugh out loud moments, intrigue and zombies made that way by medicine.By far, my favourite part of the story is where comparisons are made between the Australian and US highway systems. It demonstrates an understanding of what existing in this country is like that surprised me with it's depth."The Australian highway system, on the other hand, approached things in a way that fit what the world had come to recognise as the Australian aestheric. Instead of building walls and manning guard towers, they had reinforced their cars and trained their drivers to keep a close eye on the surrounding wilderness."
