Book excerpt: Discover the truth about who really lives above and below New York City with the entire Dead City trilogy—now available in one volume! I hate zombies. I know that sounds prejudiced and I’m sure some are probably nice to kittens and love their parents. But it’s been my experience that these are the exceptions to the rule. Meet Molly Bigelow. She’s recruited to become a zombie hunter just like her mother. As part of an elite team, OMEGA, her job is to protect the living—and the almost living—who share the island of Manhattan. Molly has to come to terms with the idea that zombies exist, and that it’s her job to help police them and keep the peace. At the same time, she just wants to be a regular kid. But can she figure out how to do that when her mother was the most feared—or most revered—zombie hunter in the history of New York City? Molly’s missions take her from the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day parade to New Year’s Eve in Times Square as her loyalties and relationships are tested. This omnibus edition includes: Dead City Blue Moon Dark Days

Book excerpt: Molly’s up against the undead—and the fate of Manhattan is in her hands—in the third and final book of the Dead City trilogy, which Hunger Games author Suzanne Collins says “breathes new life into the zombie genre.” Molly and the Omegas fight to contain the storm unleashed by Operation Blue Moon. As they do, Molly’s personal life is thrown into turmoil when she discovers that one of her closest friends has joined the ranks of the undead, a development that threatens the Omegas as well as Molly’s relationship with her mother. As Molly and her friends battle the Dead Squad (a special NYPD task force made up entirely of zombies), they discover that the world’s largest gold reserve is kept in a vault eighty feet below the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. They find a photograph of the vault’s construction in the 1920s and realize that the construction crew was led by none other than the leader of the undead, Marek Blackwell. Could this explain the source of all his money? And if so, what is he planning to do with it? Is he rebuilding Dead City…or is he building an undead army?
Download or read book The Dead City written by Paul Dobraszczyk and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-30 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dead City unearths meanings from such depictions of ruination and decay, looking at representations of both thriving cities and ones which are struggling, abandoned or simply in transition. It reveals that ruination presents a complex opportunity to envision new futures for a city, whether that is by rewriting its past or throwing off old assumptions and proposing radical change. Seen in a certain light, for example, urban ruin and decay are a challenge to capitalist narratives of unbounded progress. They can equally imply that power structures thought to be deeply ingrained are temporary, contingent and even fragile. Examining ruins in Chernobyl, Detroit, London, Manchester and Varosha, this book demonstrates that how we discuss and depict urban decline is intimately connected to the histories, economic forces, power structures and communities of a given city, as well as to conflicting visions for its future.

But nothing could have prepared them for the dangers they encounter as they make their way to the river’s source. “One of the most consistently inventive and fertile writers of science fiction and fantasy.” —The Times (London)
