i read most of the first one when he had it up online (4, 5 years ago?) before he took it down to publish. i wouldn't go so far as to say he's a brilliant writer, by any means. it was a fun read, and i'm a huge zombie nut, but i wasn't tempted to purchase.
much better read, i'd say, is max brooks'
world war Z - really well done, thought out and hopefully coming to a theater near us, at some point (brad pitt's production company bought the rights, but it's kinda floundering). also, there's an ongoing comic/graphc novel called
the walking dead - also well done. and will be a six part mini-series on AMC this fall.
don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to deter anyone from buying the day by day book, i just wasn't totally enamored with it.
and wtf? tebow with the 25th pick? does mcdaniels just do stuff for shock value?
