I finally streamed and watched the series a few weeks ago and really liked it.I like it I guess because the characters are better than any zombie film I can remember watching.The zombies are still there,but it's more about surviving I guess and getting along with each other which is cool,I think it's more real that way.
the trailer I saw for season 2 looked cool and all those million zombies on the freeway and no way for them to kill em and they just had to hide under cars.
I remember reading some of the books years ago when I was younger,I read till after the farm and they look on a cliff and see a prison below and the book just ended
