#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - "Prepare to be entranced by this addictively readable oral history of the great war between humans and zombies."--Entertainment Weekly

We survived the zombie apocalypse, but how many of us are still haunted by that terrible time? We have (temporarily?) defeated the living dead, but at what cost? Told in the haunting and riveting voices of the men and women who witnessed the horror firsthand, World War Z is the only record of the pandemic.

The Zombie War came unthinkably close to eradicating humanity. Max Brooks, driven by the urgency of preserving the acid-etched first-hand experiences of the survivors, traveled across the United States of America and throughout the world, from decimated cities that once teemed with upwards of thirty million souls to the most remote and inhospitable areas of the planet. He recorded the testimony of men, women, and sometimes children who came face-to-face with the living, or at least the undead, hell of that dreadful time. World War Z is the result. Never before have we had access to a document that so powerfully conveys the depth of fear and horror, and also the ineradicable spirit of resistance, that gripped human society through the plague years.

THE INSPIRATION FOR THE MAJOR MOTION PICTURE

"Will spook you for real."--The New York Times Book Review

"Possesses more creativity and zip than entire crates of other new fiction titles. Think Mad Max meets The Hot Zone. . . . It's Apocalypse Now, pandemic-style. Creepy but fascinating."--USA Today

"Will grab you as tightly as a dead man's fist. A."--Entertainment Weekly, EW Pick

"Probably the most topical and literate scare since Orson Welles's War of the Worlds radio broadcast . . . This is action-packed social-political satire with a global view."--Dallas Morning News

Nice full sized doggy flying toy
This LaRoo Dog Flying Disc surprised my in the size and sturdiness. The disc measures 10 inches across, so it is appropriate for most dogs as it only weighs about 6 ounces. The material of the disc is made from sort of ultra high density foam, so there is a bit of give so depending on your dog they will probably leave some teeth marks as they grab it from the ground, but unlike the hard plastic discs, this disc isn't making many of those sharp edges. My pup loves chasing this disc, but it is a bit unpredictable where it will fly in the wind because is so light, but I think this just enhances the game.

Great Launcher.
Style: 1.7" Ball
It launches balls impressively far, which keeps my pup happily running and burning off energy. No longer having to bend down to pick up slobbery tennis balls! is a huge win! It’s lightweight, easy to use, and surprisingly durable. Highly recommend for anyone with an energetic pup and a desire to keep fetch going without the strain! Just note that it is for smaller sized tennis balls.

Excellent product, but keep it away from chewers.
Style: 2.5" Ball
This is a very strong and effective launcher and could have lasted a very long time had my 9 month old not chewed the ball claw end off. I will buy again.

Our Dog Loves This Ball Thrower So Much
Style: 2.5" Ball
Works excellent for dogs that like to fetch! Our family dog loves this toy. He will bark and jump as soon as he sees us pick it up. The dog next door to us gets excited when he sees us play with our dog with this dog ball thrower. Its that good for dogs who love to fetch and run. Perfect for the young and elderly to play fetch with a pet dog. If you have back or shoulder problems works very well. You don't have to bend down and pick up a slobbery ball. Nope you use this to pick up, grip up and grab the ball. Wish every dog could have this ball thrower in their lives. It has changed the way we play fetch with our dog.

Good Pet Ball Launcher
Style: 2.5" Ball
I bought to throw balls for my Aussie. He does not like to tennis ball that came with it and chewed it up in less than one play time. The launcher seems to be of good quality and works well. We bought different balls made for launchers that work well.
