Dead Days (Season 1) by Ryan Casey [Purchase]
How would you survive the Dead Days?
Riley Jameson is a regular guy. A little hard-of-luck and going through a rough time at work, but nothing he can't handle.
That was before the creatures rose. Feasting on human flesh, their hunger is insatiable. The zombies are unstoppable. The police are gone. The government has collapsed. The world as Riley knew it has changed, forever.
In this new, terrifying world, Riley is forced to think quick and act fast in order to survive. As he encounters numerous skin-crawling scenarios, his morals are pushed to the very limit, forcing the question: can humanity survive the onslaught of the dead, not only on the outside but on the inside? The answers often prove unsettling in this unique zombie apocalypse series unlike any other.
There will be blood. There will be tears. In the Dead Days, nobody is safe.
Bone & Cinder by Scott Nicholson & Joshua Simcox [Purchase]
When Mackie Dailey survives a cataclysmic solar storm that wipes out civilization and mutates others into violent killers, he seeks out the one person he cares about most.
But when he returns to a college campus looking for Allie, he discovers she is a Zaphead—nearly unrecognizable as the human he once loved. Mackie becomes caught in a power struggle among a small group of survivors who turn the campus into a stronghold against the Zaphead threat. His old nemesis, Lucas Krider, has taken charge, but Krider’s vision of a new world is just as horrifying as the extinction they all face.
Will Mackie sacrifice himself so the group has a chance to survive, or will his demons turn out to be more dangerous than the strange, rampaging creatures that nature has unleashed?

Head Lines
THE NEW YORK TIMES—A virus is ravaging the country. People are falling over, reanimating, and eating the flesh off anyone they see. There is speculation of a worldwide pandemic. Some experts are suggesting a super bug may have been spawned by the Ebola vaccination.
THE NEW YORK POST—Hailed as a miracle cure, the vaccine promised to rid humanity of Ebola…early reports suggest that the outbreak originated in Africa where the vaccine was first used.
REUTERS—The situation is growing worse. Early estimates suggest millions are already infected. The CDC suggests staying home, locking your doors, and watching your television for emergency channel updates.
THE YOUNG TURKS—If you have been infected or know someone that has been infected, please blow their fucking heads off.
INFOWARS—The elite create virus that kills off 80 percent of the population.
THE GUARDIAN: The president is dead, mass sightings of paranormal activity reported.
There were no more headlines.
One Year Later.
Since the Sirens by E.E. Isherwood [Purchase]
Life is hard enough at fifteen…
Banished by bad decisions to spend the summer with his great-grandmother, Liam Peters thinks his life is over. After all, Marty Peters is a tough woman to be around. Maybe she wouldn’t be so bad if she'd just take an interest in the modern technology he loves. Sure, she has some insight to her…but the woman is practically “pushing daisies.” Not surprisingly, as tornado sirens announce a city-wide emergency, Liam discovers why that term should be avoided…well…like the plague.
When Grandma Marty tries to send him on his way, refusing to abandon her home, Liam sees his situation in a new light. Something deep inside awakens—and he chafes at the thought of leaving his 104-year-old grandmother to die. Armed with two tiny pistols and an arsenal of knowledge from his overwhelming zombie book collection, Liam realizes he could be the hero and accomplish the impossible: rescue her.
With the interstate gridlocked, opportunist criminals looking to take what they can get, law enforcement desperate to keep the peace, and the military declaring St. Louis a war-zone, Liam and Marty find themselves wrapped up in a world of chaos and panic. But when the zombies begin to overshadow everything else, Liam comes to appreciate why there are no atheists in foxholes.
The Survivors: Summer by V.L. Dreyer [Purchase]
"Ten years ago, a deadly plague ravaged humanity. There were seven billion souls on our planet; now, there's just a handful. Our extinction event has come and gone, but a few of us did survive. We're the lucky ones, born with a rare genetic adaptation that gave us immunity to the plague. The intervening decade has been brutal and unforgiving, and many more of us died. First came the riots, then the gangs. Bad people are running wild now, with no one to stop them.
"I wish I could say that I was the hero this world needs to stop them, but I’m not. I was eighteen years old when I watched my family die one by one, and then I spent the next decade alone, struggling to eke out an existence amongst the ruins of our shattered world. It's a miracle I'm still alive. I am a lone female in a world without rules, and death stalks me at every turn.
"It turned me hard, made me paranoid and fearful, but now I have a second chance. I've met a group that I know I can trust, a group that I would do anything to protect. I choose to fight for what's important. I can't just stand by waiting for death to claim the people that I care about, one by one. What can one person do to save a world this far gone? I’m no hero, but I can try to bring hope to the people who are left behind. I have to try. We have to try. We have to find some way to move forward, or humanity will be lost forever. Someone must take the first step, and lead the way out of the darkness.
"My name is Sandy McDermott, and I am a survivor.
"This is my story."
The Living Dead Boy by Rhiannon Frater [Purchase]
Josh Rondell is twelve years old and known as the "living dead boy" due to his rampant love of all things zombie. As the head of the Zombie Hunters Club, he's obsessed with preparing for the zombocalypse. Though no one around him really believes that zombies will one day rise to devour the living, Josh is convinced it just might happen. When zombies do shamble into his schoolyard, Josh finds himself the leader of the dwindling band of zombie hunters, and he is charged with protecting them all. Josh's baby brother, his closest friends, and the love of his young life try to survive as the undead take over their town. Trapped in his treehouse and surrounded by the dead, will Josh be able to save them all?
Includes a short story set in the same zombie world.
White Flag of the Dead by Joseph Talluto [Purchase]
Millions died when the Enillo Virus swept the earth. Millions more were lost when the victims of the plague refused to stay dead, instead rising to slaughter and feed on those left alive. For survivors like John Talon and his son Jake, they are faced with a choice: Do they submit to the dead, raising the white flag of surrender? Or do they find the will to fight, to try and hang on to the last shreds or humanity?
Zombie Fairy Tales: Cinderella by Kevin Richey [Purchase]
On the day her father is buried, Cinderella’s stepmother forces her to wait upon her ugly stepsisters as they prepare for a frivolous ball. Poor Cinderella is literally worked to death by her in-laws, and left to die alone in the cinders. But thanks to an infection from a mysterious old woman, Cinderella is granted a chance for revenge. Soon, it will be midnight, and everyone will be washing floors – with blood.
