Now this one almost made the cut - The Return Man by V.M. Zito.
The premise is similar to The Mailman here >>11714831. Go out into the wilde, bash some poor fuckers skull, get word back to familily.
After the outbreak and zombie trying to eat everyone, everything west of the mighty Mississippi river was written off. What remains of the US of A huddles in the East. Intersting as far as these things go. And from there everything goes downhill.
The New Republicans, riding on the public's fear of immigrants, I mean zombies, seizes power and implements policies that are apparently too harsh even for the zombie apocalypse. Some eye rolling later the Chinese show up. A sleeper agent, twirling his fu-manchu moustache, working on bringing down the decadent USA.
I am sure the novel introduced even more jarring characters and plot threads but I already checked out at this point.

I am on a zombie binge. Movies, games, books - it's all fair game. But I gotta say this sub-genre is about as bad as the fantasy stuff being posted here. Once I get bored of zombies I'll go back to reading Tolstoyevsky.
