Every
Death You Take, just one of the many tales in this anthology.
This is a zombie novel--a fantastic zombie novel. Most
of the world has fallen to the undead, with pockets of survivors
clinging to a precarious existence. At the behest of the leader of the
Free Women's Republic of Somaliland, a shipload of those makes the
ludicrous trip from Africa to New York in a desperate quest for
medicine. New York is a wasteland, and everything depends on a small,
incredibly dedicated band of teenage girls, armed to the teeth, and
native guide Dekalb, formerly a UN arms inspector. Also, in NYC there
is Gary, a zombie who, completely unexpectedly, retains live human
mental faculties. The questers get ringside seats for some of the
apocalypse's finest moments, and no matter how prepared they thought
they were, something worse awaits in the depths of New York. When
zombies have already overrun everything, that's saying something.
There are many layers to this zombie apocalypse, and this book just
gets things rolling. Stay tuned.
