I read that in 2013. Dan Shamble series is more humorous fantasy than zombie novel.
One of the few zombie apocalypse series I liked was John Ringo's Black Tide Rising. The sad part is that I can see his version of the zombie apocalypse being caused by a biotech hobbyist working in her/his basement whose last words are going to be "I just wanted to see what would happen!"
