You're not mistaken, Matheson does indeed identify them as vampires.

You both are correct, but I do see that there are also a couple of short stories included in the novel. Maybe at least one of them is zombie related

In fact George A Romero claims he was inspired to create the zombie from the creatures in Richard Matheson's I am Legend. I have read the novel and it is my favourite horror novel of all time. The novel is accredited in part creation of the zombie genre. So if you want to thank anybody for creating the zombie genre. You have to thank both Romero and Metheson.
It is considered one of the greatest post apocalyptic horror novels ever written. It was also the first novel ever depict vapirism as a virus. Dracula created the vampire genre but Matheson's novel is the next greatest vampire novel ever written. It paved the way for other great novels decades later such as Salem's lot.
I recommend I am Legend for anyone. It's an amazing novel of solidarity and horror. an abosulte masterpiece.

yeah that's what I thought too... glad I'm not the only one

It's FREE on Amazon tomorrow (Saturday 1/21) only.

I am legend did inspire Romero.

It still inspires me. ;)

You're right, I Am Legend had vampires, not a single zombie in the book. Looks like someone saw the movie, didn't read the novelette, and just decided to include it.

By the way, Voyage of the Dead is FREE today on Amazon and near the top of the charts. I hope it floats your boat.

Coincidentally, Voyage of the Dead is free again at http://www.amazon.com/Voyage-Dead-Sov... for another half an hour for the first time since I posted the message above. Spooky!
PS: I does have zombies ;)

WTF? also, pretty little liars is on here and uglies? What pubescent teen is adding these to a list meant for zombies? Really annoying and someone needs to be monitoring this better.


Also should be added: Conrad Williams's The Unblemished.






Finished "Alive Inside" - really good. I definitely recommend it! Now on the "The Harvesting"...



Please add some good ones!

Please feel free to rate and review it. Enjoy!




Phase One: Identify


The world is dead: people, animals and vegetation. The main character is a cop (dead) who hunts the living and whose father was a famous hunter of the living.
Society is normal (and dead) with cities and cars etc


Not really. Undead is a fairly generic term, but zombie isn't generic at all, and this is not an "Undead" list. But where did you get the idea that it includes terminally/homicidally infected? The first two parts of your definition is correct, the last is not; the infected horde has to be actually dead to qualify as zombies.
This is about books, not their movie counterparts, and if you've read I Am Legend, you know that the book specifically is about vampires. Even if it were true that zombie were a generic term as you claim, it still wouldn't be accurate to say that a book about vampires belongs on a reading list for zombie fiction. Matheson's book is not appropriate to this list.

In other words, the infection drove them insane and made them BELIEVE they were vampires.


In other words, the infection drove them..."
True, to a point. They don't exhibit "vampire-like" symptoms--they behave like vampires, period. The MC surmises that the reason they react to holy symbols is due to psychological conditioning from cultural beliefs about vampires, but the blood drinking and sunlight issues are real, not a delusional belief.
They act like vampires, they think they are vampires, the MC calls them vampires, and names the virus the changes them after the word vampire. It's a book about vampires, not zombies.
