“I appreciate the fact that we do a zombie book, I appreciate the fact that because of that very nature, it has to be gory and you have to show stuff. We have never done anything gratuitously. That sounds so ridiculous to say, but every time we’ve shown some level of violence to another human being, it’s always been to serve the story, even when we show a torture scene. It wasn’t just 15 pages of violence for no reason, there was a reason for it.”
