Adult Book Discussion: The Walking Dead Chronicles, August 19, 2013 at 3:00pm

  If you're into zombies, or just into good television, join us for a discussion of The Walking Dead Chronicles: The Official Companion Book. We'll discuss the book and show, and see some clips from the episodes.
  The Walking Dead Chronicles is the only authorized, behind-the-scenes guide to Season One of the AMC television series, The Walking Dead, which tells the story of a sheriff’s deputy leading a band of survivors in a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the undead.
  Focusing on the making of the first season of the Golden Globe–nominated TV show, as well as the creation of the New York Times bestselling comic book on which the series is based, The Walking Dead Chronicles is lavishly illustrated with never-before-seen unit photography, storyboards, set designs, makeup and visual effects shots, and page-to-screen comparisons of the comic and TV show. Featuring new interviews with series creator Robert Kirkman and executive producer Frank Darabont, as well as the cast and crew, the book also includes sidebars that serve as a detailed episode guide, and reproducing excerpts from early drafts and final scripts.
  This group will continue to meet bi-monthly to discuss other horror, fantasy and science-fiction books, television shows, and movies.
