About this product

Product Information

Winner of the 2011 Diamond Gem Award for Trade Book of the Year In the Walking Dead universe, there is no greater villain than The Governor. The despot who runs the walled-off town of Woodbury, he has his own sick sense of justice: whether it's forcing prisoners to battle zombies in an arena for the townspeople's amusement, or chopping off the appendages of those who cross him. The Governor was voted "Villain of the Year" by Wizard magazine the year he debuted, and his story arc was the most controversial in the history of the Walking Dead comic book series. Now, for the first time, fans of The Walking Dead will discover how The Governor became the man he is, and what drove him to such extremes.

Not for the faint of heart, this book runs on pressure-cooker suspense, graphically described bloodshed, and dark acts of brutality...This riveting character study adds a new dimension to the oeuvre by fleshing out established characters and plot lines., This book stands alone and is a compelling read for fans of the series or just fans of zombies. Watch out though, because once you get a taste of the particular Kirkman brand of zombie mayhem, catching up on past issues is just around the corner., "If the comic book writer Robert Kirkman were a superhero, his name might be the Midas Touch." --The New York Times, Praise for The Walking Dead: Rise of the Governor: "Zombie-apocalypse stories are perfect for miserable winter weather regardless, but for those obsessed with The Walking Dead (such as yours truly), this is essential reading.

  • Not the page turner that was expected but a good read.

    My daughter and I are fans of the show so I bought her this book for Christmas. Although I didn't read it yet, she read it in about 3 days. She said she didn't enjoy it as much as the show (I think she was prejudice) but she said it was engaging and kept her interest. We would buy the next book if it becomes a series. I look forward to reading it when I get it from her the next time I see she visits. We agreed it is a good bridge till the new episodes return.

  • Awesome!!!

    Well i bought this,because im a die hard fan of the Walking Dead tv show AND the graphic novel's...glad i did get this...it's a total page turner, VERY VERY detailed and descriptive....the only words that describe this book. AWESOME,BLOODY,GORY,GREAT STORY...dis like? maybe it would have been cool if the story was longer...doesnt really compare to other's..because it's an exception. A book with slick turner after turn...and a KILLER Twist at the end...AWESOME BOOK...if you dont know the story of the governor..and you HAVE NOT bought this book. Buy it!!! You will NOT be disappointed!!!
