Book excerpt: ""What I liked most about this novel, other than the zombies of course, is that the characters are very real, you really care about them, and this makes it much more real than any other zombie novel. And it is really cool to see resourceful children that take action, and not comic book kind of action, but the real genius action that kids are capable of. Sounds crazy, but this book, about zombies, will make you cry, and it will make you think. I can't think of a better combo. Great take on zombies, too! Very cool book."" - Internet review A zombie novel, finally, that shows a realistic, vivid representation of what a true zombie apocalypse might be like (i.e., it would not be a fun-fest of exploding heads and salty wisecracks).

Download or read book The Z Contingency written by W. I. Eganson and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What would you do if you knew the zombie apocalypse was coming, and you knew how to stop it? Gary Ecks, an expert on viral hemorrhagic fevers at the CDC, finds himself facing this very situation. His model predicts the mutation of a highly contagious virus that will zombify its victims. He knows that if countermeasures aren't taken immediately, the human race could soon be replaced by the living dead. While creating a vaccine would seem to be the obvious answer, it's not so easy when the CDC denies the possibility of zombies and turns a blind eye to the threat. He tries to convince his colleague, Natalie Wyler, to help him develop a vaccine. Knowing that the vaccine would be created from a weakened or dead sample of the virus, she refuses, as they would first have to create the virus they fear. Rapidly unfolding events cause Natalie to realize the zombie virus is coming regardless of what she does. Still reluctant, she agrees to help secretly work to save mankind, but the two scientists are forced to abandon their lab before they can complete their task. Enter agents of a shadow organization who have taken note of their progress and raise the specter of a greater peril. Gary's worst fears are realized when their reports suggest someone may have actually stolen the virus, and may be spreading it. Now, the goal to develop a vaccine has become one to recover the virus and develop a cure, leading Gary on a cross-country trek to find Natalie. Gary's path crosses with a loosely-knit network of zombie prepper groups. But with all Hell breaking loose, will they help Gary get to a cure, or try to stop him? This is a trade paperback with a matte cover. A trade paperback with a glossy cover, and an e-book for the Kindle are also available.

Download or read book Devolution written by Max Brooks and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The #1 New York Times bestselling author of World War Z is back with “the Bigfoot thriller you didn’t know you needed in your life, and one of the greatest horror novels I’ve ever read” (Blake Crouch, author of Dark Matter and Recursion). FINALIST FOR THE LOCUS AWARD As the ash and chaos from Mount Rainier’s eruption swirled and finally settled, the story of the Greenloop massacre has passed unnoticed, unexamined . . . until now. The journals of resident Kate Holland, recovered from the town’s bloody wreckage, capture a tale too harrowing—and too earth-shattering in its implications—to be forgotten. In these pages, Max Brooks brings Kate’s extraordinary account to light for the first time, faithfully reproducing her words alongside his own extensive investigations into the massacre and the legendary beasts behind it. Kate’s is a tale of unexpected strength and resilience, of humanity’s defiance in the face of a terrible predator’s gaze, and, inevitably, of savagery and death. Yet it is also far more than that. Because if what Kate Holland saw in those days is real, then we must accept the impossible. We must accept that the creature known as Bigfoot walks among us—and that it is a beast of terrible strength and ferocity. Part survival narrative, part bloody horror tale, part scientific journey into the boundaries between truth and fiction, this is a Bigfoot story as only Max Brooks could chronicle it—and like none you’ve ever read before. Praise for Devolution “Delightful . . . [A] tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “The story is told in such a compelling manner that horror fans will want to believe and, perhaps, take the warning to heart.”—Booklist (starred review)

Download or read book Going Viral written by Dahlia Schweitzer and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2018-03-09 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outbreak narratives have proliferated for the past quarter century, and now they have reached epidemic proportions. From 28 Days Later to 24 to The Walking Dead, movies, TV shows, and books are filled with zombie viruses, bioengineered plagues, and disease-ravaged bands of survivors. Even news reports indulge in thrilling scenarios about potential global pandemics like SARS and Ebola. Why have outbreak narratives infected our public discourse, and how have they affected the way Americans view the world? In Going Viral, Dahlia Schweitzer probes outbreak narratives in film, television, and a variety of other media, putting them in conversation with rhetoric from government authorities and news organizations that have capitalized on public fears about our changing world. She identifies three distinct types of outbreak narrative, each corresponding to a specific contemporary anxiety: globalization, terrorism, and the end of civilization. Schweitzer considers how these fears, stoked by both fictional outbreak narratives and official sources, have influenced the ways Americans relate to their neighbors, perceive foreigners, and regard social institutions. Looking at everything from I Am Legend to The X Files to World War Z, this book examines how outbreak narratives both excite and horrify us, conjuring our nightmares while letting us indulge in fantasies about fighting infected Others. Going Viral thus raises provocative questions about the cost of public paranoia and the power brokers who profit from it.
