Children of the Undead — David Dvorkin

A social and political satire disguised as a comic novel about zombies and pickles. Or possibly the other way around. They're back, and they want to eat your brains. Again. "Go in there." "Hell, no. I'm going to send someone stupid in there with a pickle." It's brains served with a side of pickles, hold the mayo. A terrifying tale of parents, children, brothers, sisters, friends, bosses, employees, wives, ex-wives, friends' wives, Republicans, studly bacteria, zombies, tentacles, politics, religion, giant screaming earth mothers, and the armpit and other regions of Hell. And pickles.
