I read this book after seeing the movie and I have to say, the short story is VERY different and MUCH better than the movie. More so than other movies based on books. I really enjoyed the "I Am Legend" short story, I can't say much about it without ruining it, but it really is the kind of story that makes you think. As for the other short stories that followed, I had a difficult time getting into them. Well written, but they just didn't grab me like "I Am Legend" did. I still recommend it though as a great read. Leave the lights on!
