Description

Betrayed by his best friend and left to die at the hands of zombies, Nick Steiner has a vendetta to settle: if he can stay alive. Being shot by Marcus Gray has given Nick sufficient reason to want revenge; for that alone Marcus deserves to die. Yet Marcus didn't just shoot Nick: he stole Nick's woman as well. Nick has vowed to kill everyone and everything in his way until he gets his girl back and makes Marcus pay. DISCLAIMER: This novel contains depictions of extreme violence, adult language, sexual references and situations, and other miscellaneous terms that may be racial and ethnically derogatory. If you are easily offended it is advised you think twice before purchasing it. The author wants to make it known that any offensive language and situations that are contained within have been put there solely in the interest of realism. EXCERPT: "It had initially been thought that the zombie virus was an offshoot of Ebola. Many zombie-virus symptoms mimicked the terrible, hemorrhagic fever. Ebola infection starts with a fierce head and backache. As the virus amplifies within a host, it tries to turn every living cell into a duplicate of itself. It turns a person's skin yellow and causes red-splotches to appear throughout the skin as the victim bleeds internally. It also turns their eyes red. As it spreads, it dissolves the muscles that control facial movements: it changes a person into an expressionless zombie. It also wipes upper brain functions, which destroys an individual's personality and leaves that person a shell of who they once were. Ebola then turns the insides of its host into jelly: you begin to vomit black junk which is basically your dissolved liver and internal organs. The vomiting is uncontrollable and goes on and on. Your stomach fills with blood. Blood clots multiply and begin to surge through your body. You may have a heart attack or stroke. You then bleed out from every orifice. In its final stages, you shit out your intestinal linings in a rush of a**-blood. How do I know so much about Ebola? It was on the news everywhere for weeks when scientists first believed it was the agent responsible for the zombie epidemic. At first, many people infected with the zombie virus experienced similar symptoms to Ebola: they suffered from high fever and head/backaches. Their skin changed to yellow or pasty white. They developed discolored patches of skin. They vomited uncontrollably for hours. They bled from their eyes, nose, mouth, or a combination of them. Once all that was over with, they died as they curled over in agony, clutching blood-filled stomachs. Unlike Ebola, they came back and spread the disease through biting others. It would likely never be proven if the zombie virus had spawned from Ebola. The men and women who'd bothered with that type of thing were mostly the really smart and scientific folk. As far as I knew, they were now all dead. Maybe they weren't as smart as they'd thought? Or maybe scientists lacked common sense but were good book readers. Either way, they hadn't found a cure." AUTHOR'S NOTE: I am truly excited for this zombie apocalypse novel. Here are some of the highlights that you can expect: 14+ characters who get to die in awesome ways (usually from zombies), a showdown with enemy survivors, a stunning betrayal, an intensely cruel and devious villain, a hero who has to save his woman and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty, plus a great s** scene. Shamblers mixes horror with fast-paced action. The character relationships make it much more than just a zombie-survival story. One theme that I tried hard to imprint is a sense of hyper-realism: the characters are believable. They are unique. They each have their own quirks. Often, they have to make difficult choices. Shamblers feels like a mix of the TV series The Walking Dead (of which I am a huge fan) and the Western, Unforgiven. I hope you enjoy the bloodbath.
