Meet dead family members in Neil Davies' "Abandoned" and Sylvia McIver's "Candles Against the Dark" - but be careful - not all reunions are loving. Read tales of ancient undead from D.J. Tyrer and Carl Thomas Fox - and a modern variant from Jason Purdy. Find out what Dickens' Ghost of Christmas Future does once her job is over in "Fear of the Future" by Gareth Barsby. What are zombies like in the winter? Jay Wilburn and Spencer Carvalho will be happy to show you. Interested in adventure? Alex Azar takes you "Under the Hood of Winter." Take a lonely road into fear with Guy Burtenshaw, find unusual allies in the forest with Ryan Tandy, and learn about true survival in Stephanie Stamm's "Phantom Pains." Prefer to stick close to home, where it's safe? Shenoa Carrol-Bradd and Lance Zarimba will make you feel a lot less secure. So, grab a blanket before settling down to read this book... but you might want to keep a firearm handy, just in case.

Everyone, that is, except Bobby, the new girl, who stays behind with rebel-without-a-clue Smitty. Then hours pass. Snow piles up. Sun goes down. Bobby and Smitty start to flirt. Start to stress. Till finally they see the other kids stumbling back. But they've changed. And not in a good way. Straight up, they're zombies. So the wheels on the bus better go round and round freakin' fast, because that's the only thing keeping Bobby and Smitty from becoming their classmates' next meal. It's kill or be killed in these hunger games, heads are gonna roll, and homework is most definitely gonna be late.Combining the chill of THE SHINING, the thrill ride of SPEED, the humor of SHAUN OF THE DEAD, and the angst of THE BREAKFAST CLUB, Kirsty McKay's UNDEAD is a bloody mad mash-up, a school-trip splatter-fest, a funny, gory, frighteningly good debut!

Book Description
A series of spectacular disasters leads to the destruction of the Old World. The few survivors flee, settling in the tri-systems forged in the outer reaches of space. The legacy of this settlement was the establishment of the first Board of the conglomerates, which organised and provided the means of survival under the motto of ‘contribute to survive.’ However, when the shining Rose City, a monument to not only humanity’s victory over extinction but also a promise of prosperity for the future, fell during the traumatic event known as the Capital Collapse, a stark truth was realised. To survive is to struggle. Now, the common worker is fearful of the retribution of the powers that be, seemingly blaming the underlings for the fall of their great city. But there are some who resist. From this sect of resistance, one member of a humanoid species that had once known the worlds as their own sets out to learn the real truth of why so many have to suffer, delving into the horrors and nightmares that lie at the heart of the forlorn Capital. With the self-exiled Elite Commander Nathan Winter returning to the fray, could the secret of the Capital Collapse set the people free? Or will it bring only conflict and further ruin?

In the morgue and in cemeteries, the recently deceased are waking up.

Book Description
Death was everywhere. They all stared at me, bumping into one another and slowly coming forward. Sixteen-year-old Zharie Young is absolutely certain her mother morphed into a zombie before her untimely death, but she can't seem to figure out why. Why her mother died, why her aunt doesn't want her around, why all her dreams seem suddenly, hopelessly out of reach. And why, ever since that day, she's been seeing zombies everywhere. Then Bo moves into her apartment building—tall, skateboard in hand, freckles like stars, and an undeniable charm. Z wants nothing to do with him, but when he transforms into a half zombie right before her eyes, something feels different. He contradicts everything she thought she knew about monsters, and she can't help but wonder if getting to know him might unlock the answers to her mother's death. As Zharie sifts through what's real and what's magic, she discovers a new truth about the world: Love can literally change you—for good or for dead. In this surrealist journey of grief, fear, and hope, Britney S. Lewis's debut novel explores love, zombies, and everything in between in an intoxicating amalgam of the real and the fantastic.

Book Description
The sequel to Rise Again from an author who “balances kinetically choreographed scenes of zombie carnage with studies of well-drawn characters and enough political intrigue to give his tale more gravity and grounding than most zombie gorefests” (Publishers Weekly). The sequel to Rise Again, from an author who “balances kinetically choreographed scenes of zombie carnage with studies of well-drawn characters and enough political intrigue to give his tale more gravity and grounding than most zombie gorefests” (Publishers Weekly). Billions died and rose again, hungry for human flesh. When the nightmare reached Sheriff Danielle Adelman’s small mountain community of Forest Peak, California, it was too late for warnings . . . forcing her to lead a small group of survivors out of hell, all the while seeking her estranged runaway sister at any cost. Two years later, the undead have evolved. Now, besides the shambling, mindless cannibals are the hunters—cunning and fast, like wolves—and the thinkers, whose shocking intel­ligence and single-minded predatory obsession may mean the downfall of what’s left of humanity. As Danny leads a ragtag band of the living through the remnants of the American Midwest, rumors arise of a safe place somewhere east. But the closer they get to it, the more certain Danny becomes that something evil waits for them at the end of the line. With an unspeakable secret riding beside her and an unbreakable promise made to a small, silent boy, Danny must stake everything she has—her leadership, her sanity, and her life— in order to defeat the ultimate horror in a terrifying and dying world.
