Zombies Vs. Unicorns
Ratings26
Average rating3.5
It's a question as old as time itself: which is better, the zombie or the unicorn? In this anthology, edited by Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier (unicorn and zombie, respectively), strong arguments are made for both sides in the form of short stories. Half of the stories portray the strengths--for good and evil--of unicorns and half show the good (and really, really bad-ass) side of zombies. Contributors include many bestselling teen authors, including Cassandra Clare, Libba Bray, Maureen Johnson, Meg Cabot, Scott Westerfeld, and Margo Lanagan. This anthology will have everyone asking: Team Zombie or Team Unicorn?

I'm not even done with this book but I'm enjoying it immensely. Zombies vs Unicorns is a fun literary romp that pits the eternal undead against the pristine unicorn. The stories in this collection are good (many better than those I've read in various other zombie anthologies) but the real fun is the commentary provided by the editors, Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier, who root for their respective teams and snark their way through determining which side is better. Their wit and friendly banter make this anthology one of the most fun I've read. Even the cover and interior art is laced with hilarity as zombies and unicorns fight one another, poised in the eternal struggle to answer the question who is better, zombies or unicorns?
