How It All Goes Down
Why England?
- This appendix to the novel is a sermon delivered by the Rev. Richard Manville on Christmas Eve in 1799.
- Sadly, the Reverend is killed by a mob of zombies just four days after he gives this speech. Bummer.
- The sermon asks this basic question: why has this horrific plague of zombies come to England? Why not France or America or Greece instead?
- The Reverend believes it's because God knew only the English could defeat the zombie menace. It's their stoic resolve in the face of death that sets them apart from those of other countries.
- The English? They keep calm and slay on.
