> That I can't live anywhere cause they own it and will charge me and if I don't pay will shoot me.

Now, I'm no real estate attorney, but I believe that when you buy a piece of property from another private citizen, the citizen can't threaten gun play at the time of contractual negotiations or signing.

If you can do this, then I really think that HGTV is missing out on some more exciting programming opportunities. "Flip Or Fire At Will", "The Sisters Brothers", "Love It Or I'll Fucking Shoot You", etc.

Came here to suggest Grunts.

Also maybe Soon I Will Be Invincible - lots of super-villain POV.

The Sad Tale of the Brothers Grossbart - Despicable characters who think that they are completely justified in what they do.

The Sisters Brothers - similarly about villainous characters, but less extreme.

And maybe Villains by Necessity will come back into print some day. (looks like the plot summary there is for the wrong book - check out the reviews farther down if you're curious)

The Sisters Brothers. Been quite a while since I read any SF that would qualify as awesome.

I think you might enjoy The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova based on your like of WWZ. It isn’t a oral history but it is a vampire story deeply based in history: https://www.amazon.com/Historian-Elizabeth-Kostova/dp/0316067946

For something with a bit more levity but still engaging and fun to read, try The Sisters Brothers by Patrick DeWitt. It’s a story about two brothers who happen to be Wild West bounty hunters. Definitely has aspects of magical realism sprinkled in for good measure. https://www.amazon.com/Sisters-Brothers-Patrick-deWitt/dp/0062041282

Lastly, if you’re into science fiction, Wool by Hugh Howey is a collection of short stories about a society forced to live in massive underground silos after an unknown disaster: https://www.amazon.com/Wool-Omnibus-Kindle-Motion-Silo-ebook/dp/B0071XO8RA
