The other night I asked for some Indie book recommendations on my author page and after reading through them all I did something in typical Madeline Sheehan fashion and picked none of the above. I am a ZOMBIE freak, and damn proud of it. Nina finds out that the deaders aren’t the only thing to fear beyond the wall.Īnd that fear will not be ignored, or Forgotten.

However, this new world brings new dangers, and darker shadows than she knew. Nina is forced to fight for their lives, and with every zombie slain, she becomes fiercer, faster – a grim reaper with her not-so-sharp butcher’s knife.Īlong the path to a safe-haven that might not exist, Nina and Emily-Rose meet Mikey who introduces them to a new life they could not imagine, a life above the ground. However, when you have a bread-stealing liability providing your only back up, survival seems even tougher. Unused to fighting the deaders, Nina tries to scrounge for her survival and against her better judgment, begins to care for Emily-Rose. Nina tells herself that it is sympathy and not self-preservation that makes her follow the young girl out of the walled metropolis, and into the overgrown world beyond. For the price of a stale piece of bread, she is set for banishment from the city, and most likely a horrific death at the hands of the deaders. Nina has only one currency-her body and she is tired of submitting herself to the greedy hands of the self-proclaimed leaders.Īn opportunity to escape presents itself in the fate of a young girl named Emily-Rose. Life behind the walls has become as terrifying as roaming the zombie-ridden landscape beyond.Ĭitizens trade what they can to gain food, water, and shelter.

The barricaded cities, erected by the government to protect the remnants of civilization, have become a brutal dictatorship- causing the inhabitants within to starve, steal and claw for survival.

Nina’s life was irrevocably changed when humanity’s dead began to rise. It’s better to die by the gun than die by the dead.
