About this product

Product Information

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE "Gruesome yet poetic...highly original." -- The Seattle Times "Dark and funny." -- Wired "A mesmerizing evolution of a classic contemporary myth." --Simon Pegg "A strange and unexpected treat...elegantly written, touching, and fun." --Audrey Niffenegger, author of The Time Traveler's Wife "Has there been a more sympathetic monster since Frankenstein's?" -- Financial Times In Warm Bodies , Isaac Marion's New York Times bestselling novel that inspired a major film, a zombie returns to humanity through an unlikely encounter with love. "R" is having a no-life crisis--he is a zombie. He has no memories, no identity, and no pulse, but he is a little different from his fellow Dead. He may occasionally eat people, but he'd rather be riding abandoned airport escalators, listening to Sinatra in the cozy 747 he calls home, or collecting souvenirs from the ruins of civilization. And then he meets a girl. First as his captive, then his reluctant house guest, Julie is a blast of living color in R's gray landscape, and something inside him begins to bloom. He doesn't want to eat this girl--although she looks delicious--he wants to protect her. But their unlikely bond will cause ripples they can't imagine, and their hopeless world won't change without a fight.

Reviews
"Isaac Marion has created the most unexpected romantic lead I've ever encountered, and rewritten the entire concept of what it means to be a zombie in the process. I eagerly await the next book by Isaac Marion." -- Stephenie Meyer, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of the Twilight series, Marion's novel is even better [than the movie], digging deep into sardonic observations about humanity, comic takes on zombie behavior and stirring reflections on what it really means to be alive or dead., Warm Bodies is a terrific zombook. Whether you're warm-bodied or cold-bodied, snuggle up to it with the lights low and enjoy a dead-lightful combination of horror and romance., "In elegant, evocative prose, Marion has fashioned the world's most unlikely romance in a story that is by turns harrowing, poignant, and tender. At the last, the reader is reminded that we are all ultimately human, whether living or dead. Utterly charming." Library Journal , starred review, "Isaac Marion has a great new voice that hooks you from page one and accomplishes the impossible: it makes you care about young zombie love. Warm Bodies is a terrific read." -Josh Bazell, author of New York Times bestseller Beat the Reaper, "I never thought I could care so passionately for a zombie. This story stayed with me long after I was done reading it." Stephenie Meyer, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of the Twilight series, " Warm Bodies is a strange and unexpected treat. This is a wonderful book, elegantly written, touching and fun, as delightful as a mouthful of fresh brains." Audrey Niffenegger, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of The Time Traveler's Wife, "The words Marion uses to describe his grim near-future are silken smooth. They slip through the mind's grasp easily, pleasurably, leaving hardly a hint of themselves in the images they evoke." -- The Seattle Times, Marion's characters are far from perfect. Their flaws give them a realness and depth that have the reader caring deeply., "Elegantly written, touching, and fun." - Audrey Niffenegger, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Time Traveler's Wife, "I never thought I could care so passionately for a zombie. Isaac Marion has created the most unexpected romantic lead I've ever encountered, and rewritten the entire concept of what it means to be a zombie in the process. This story stayed with me long after I was done reading it. I eagerly await the next book by Isaac Marion." Stephenie Meyer, #1 New York Times Bestselling author of the Twilight series, " Warm Bodies is a terrific zombook. Whether you're warm-bodied or cold-bodied, snuggle up to it with the lights low and enjoy a dead-lightful combination of horror and romance." - Examiner.com, Remarkable. From the very first page you are hooked on protagonist R's story. You actually care about R. Yes, you find yourself really caring about a zombie., The writing is lively, the characters intriguing, and the creative reinvention of popular themes is thought-provoking.

  • Don't read the last chapter and you'll be fine

    I feel pretty let down by this one, and that kinda bummed me out because I'd heard so many good things about it. At about 95% of the way through I was all set to give the book five stars and then for the last 10-15 pages it was like the author just gave up and didn't care anymore, either that or he felt like he'd painted himself into a corner and didn't know how to get out. This book would have been great if the last chapter had just been dropped and a sequel had been written. Yes, there would have been a huge (but awesome) cliffhanger in this book (you know, the kind that has you salivating for the next book), but the author also could have taken the time to think through and work out a proper solution to his problem and detailed how that solution was worked out ...
