If you've made it past that bit and are still interested, I suppose I'll tell you a bit more. The premise is pretty standard--something caused some humans to become zombies, and they spread the disease by attacking other humans and eating pieces of them. You've seen it in every zombie book, film, or show. However, this series has been successful, I think, because of the interesting characters developed on the human side. The zombies rarely make an appearance--only enough to unsettle the survivors and complicate their lives. To survive, the diverse crew of once-strangers must make difficult decisions, trust one another, and seek out ever-dwindling resources.
It's a long, stumbling road to the thirteenth trade, but well worth the journey of you are up for it. I didn't have the chance to watch it, but there was a TV series based on the series that was released last season and got pretty good reviews. Anyone watch it and/or know if it's been picked up for a second season?
