I am legend - Richard Matheson

Robert Neville may well be the last living man on Earth . . . but he is not alone. An incurable plague has mutated every other man, woman, and child into bloodthirsty, nocturnal creatures who are determined to destroy him. By day, he is a hunter, stalking the infected monstrosities through the abandoned ruins of civilization. By night, he barricades himself in his home and prays for dawn....

I Am Legend is a 1954 horror fiction novel by American writer Richard Matheson. It was influential in the development of the zombie genre and in popularizing the concept of a worldwide apocalypse due to disease. The novel was a success and was adapted to film as The Last Man on Earth in 1964, as The Omega Man in 1971, and as I Am Legend in 2007, along with an unofficial direct to video production capitalizing on that film, I Am Omega. It was also the inspiration behind the 1968 film Night of the Living Dead.

Well, I started yesterday, I've only read the first chapter and I could see Robert Neville is quite different that I imagined.

Besides, I didn't know that
the zombies were like vampires. These zombies can even speak. Robert has to make garlic necklaces and nail them to the doors and windows to avoid the entrance of vampires.
I enjoyed these first few pages, I'll go on.

PD. The English isn't very hard. Whether you have a intermediate level you can follow the story.

I started it yesterday, just the first chapter.
Robert Neville is waiting for the sunset to prepare his house against vampires, with garlic ropes.

I guess I lost fluency reading English, because I had to read the first pages twice to understand the beginning of the story :cunao: Then... yes, it was easier :wink:
