Zombies and quick-witted humor? You bet!
Forever Zombie is not filled with your
typical blood and gore zombie tales and even
non-zombie fans will enjoy this collection.
These tales will take you to a world where the
existence of zombies is not just a possibility,
but a fact of life. And that life after death
might be much different than we have ever
imagined. Consider the plight of the Grim Reaper
when he descends upon the law offices of Romero,
O'Bannon, Fulci & Flanders only to find his next
"client" is already dead in "Every Death You
Take". Or how about "The Farmer's Daughter",
daring to bring home her future husband to meet
the family and he isn't exactly what they
imagined their future son-in-law might be like.
Or a creepy visit to a zombie museum in the
middle of nowhere in "A Night At The Zombie
Museum". And who do you think might be smarter?
A gang of zombie bikers or the I.Q.-impaired
hillbillies in "Ozark Hicks and Zombie Chicks"?
Well, that one’s a close call. And it's all here
in Forever Zombie: A Collection of Undead Guy
Tales and each story has a special touch
that will keep you reading far into the night.
Think you can read just one tale before bed each
night? Try two or three. Or maybe you'll still
be reading the last of the stories before the
sun comes up the next morning. But as an added
precaution, make sure you check your pulse every
once in awhile.
"Forever Zombie caught me by surprise.
There is a sinister humor here reminiscent of
Edward Gorey, and a playfulness that echoes
Roald Dahl. It's a curious mix, but it works
great. Trust me: whichever way your pleasure
tends, whether it's a subtly placed bit of
characterization or a deliciously plotted twist
ending, you're going to find something to love
here. Forever Zombie is a hit!" --Joe
