World War Z – The Art Of The Film
Titan Books
ISBN 9781781168851
RRP £16.99
The journey from page to screen for World War Z hasn't exactly been an easy one. News of expensive reshoots became common place and many predicted a rather swift transfer from screen to bargain bin.

James Herbert
Pan
ISBN - 100230706967
RRP - £7.99
Any release from James Herbert was worth taking notice of and Ash, which was released a few days before his untimely death, is one of his finest titles. It contains all of the skilful plotting and crowd pleasing chills that he was rightly renowned for, but it also dips its toe very much into the happenings in the world today.
