Nick Clausen2019
The dead have awakened. Driven by insatiable hunger. In eternal search of fresh meat. The infection spreads like the plague. Nothing stands between the undead and humanity. Is it too late to save the world from disaster? The end of the world one day at a time In this new apocalyptic zombie series from the author of They Come at Night and Human Flesh, we follow events day for day as the world slowly but surely decends into mayhem as the zombies take over. Don''t miss the thrilling ride! For fans of The Walking Dead, The Orphans Book and World War Z. How it all began Three teenagers find themselves trapped in a stuffy, warm basement. The old lady who used to own the house is now dead. She''s also standing right on the other side of the basement door, scraping and moaning, trying to get in. Patiently. Tirelessly. Said about the DEAD MEAT series ★★★★★ "super exciting, totally entertaining and innovative zombie series" ★★★★★ "you won''t be able to put it down until the last page" ★★★★★ "terrifying, nightmare-inducing, impossible to put down" Excerpt Thomas makes his way through the room, noticing the bloody footprints on the carpet. A sound reaches him, makes him stop dead in his tracks. It''s a wet smacking noise. Like a child eating Bolognese for the first time and making a mess of it. It''s coming from the kitchen. Thomas looks around for a weapon. He didn''t think to bring the pipe. Instead, he grabs a big, pink crystal rock from a shelf. It feels satisfyingly heavy in his hand, giving him the courage to go on towards the opening to the kitchen. A dreadful sight meets him. In the middle of the kitchen, sprawled out on the vinyl floor, is a grown man. His skin is dark and he''s wearing shorts and a T-shirt. The colors of his clothes are hard to discern, as they''re completely soaked with blood. His stomach is open. It reminds Thomas of something he saw in a medical documentary about open heart surgery. Something is hanging out of the side of the crater. It looks like a piece of raw sausage with the filling sucked out of it. The rest of the content of the poor man''s stomach is mercifully hidden from view by the girl who''s sitting on her knees, feasting away. With one hand, she digs eagerly into the man''s intestines, transporting them to her mouth and chewing loudly. The other arm, which is broken, hangs limply by her side. Apparently, this one-armed system isn''t working fast enough to satisfy the girl''s appetite, because suddenly she bends over and simply buries her face in the guy''s stomach. Thomas breathes firmly through his nose--which immediately proves a mistake, as it only intensifies the smell of blood and meat. He knows he needs to move on. That he''s still in a hurry. That the guy on the floor might only be minutes from waking up, and then he''ll have two zombies to deal with. So, he slips through the kitchen as close to the wall as possible. His eyes are fixed on the girl, and that''s why he doesn''t notice the bottle of olive oil lying on the floor. He accidentally kicks it, and it rolls across the floor, hitting the table leg with a loud Clank! Thomas freezes, raising the stone, ready to throw it at the zombie girl. But she doesn''t react at all to the noise; not even a flinch. She just keeps eating. Thomas breathes a sigh of relief. He hurries on. Makes it out of the kitchen and into a hallway. There are a couple of closed doors. At the end is the scullery. He reminds himself about the fact that he can''t know for sure if anyone else is in the house--living or dead. So, he keeps the crystal stone held high, ready to strike at anyone trying to surprise him ... Day 2 and Day 3 are also out! Begin the thrilling series right here, with Day 1
