RESURRECTION!
The hungry dead have risen. They
shamble down the street. They hide in back yards, car lots, shopping
malls. They devour neighbors, dogs and police officers. And they are
here to stay. The real question is, what are you going to do about it?
How will you survive?
HOW WILL THE WORLD CHANGE WHEN THE DEAD
BEGIN TO RISE?
Stoker-award-winning author Christopher Golden
has assembled an original anthology of never-before-published zombie
stories from an eclectic array of today's hottest writers. Inside there are stories about military might in the wake of an outbreak, survival
in a wasted wasteland, the ardor of falling in love with a zombie, and a family outing at the circus. Here is a collection of new views on
death and resurrection.
With stories from Joe Hill, John Connolly, Max Brooks, Kelley Armstrong, Tad Williams, David Wellington, David
Liss, Aimee Bender, Jonathan Maberry, and many others, this is a wildly
diverse and entertaining collection... the Last Word on the New Dead.
