ZOMBIES: NOW MORE THAN EVER
Edited by: John Skipp
John Skipp and Black Dog & Leventhal pull out all stops to bring you ZOMBIES: ENCOUNTERS WITH THE HUNGRY DEAD, the last zombie anthology you will ever buy. (Put away our wallets!)
From a master of Zombie fiction and a founding father of "splatterpunk" comes a mind-bending anthology of 35 new and classic stories from both renowned writers and rising stars.
In the tradition of Black Dog & Leventhal's bestselling Vampires and Ghosts, this anthology of 35 stories is set in a world where the dead have risen from the grave to consume the living. This rich collection showcases the best of the genre—from short-story masters such as Ray Bradbury and Theodore Sturgeon, zombie stalwarts such as David J. Schow and Jack Ketchum, "bizarro" founders such as Carlton Mellick III, and popular up-and-comers such as Max Brooks and S.G. Browne—and will satisfy the insatiable hunger of zombie fans everywhere.
A series of captivating essays about zombies in folklore and in popular culture by John Skipp, award-winning zombie anthologist and author, enrich an already extraordinary collection by discussing the past, present, and future of the living dead. And a resources section encompassing the best of longform fiction, movies, websites, and writers is included for any reader interested in learning more about the wider world of the undead.
Sure to sate the hungriest zombie fans with classic as well as contemporary servings of tangled entrails and other unspeakable meals, Zombies: Encounters with the Hungry Dead will be shambling out of bookstores in October 2009.
Bradbury! Barker! Lansdale! Schow! III! 704 pages! Now how much would you expect to pay?
THE DAY BEFORE THE DAY AFTER
By: John Skipp & Cody Goodfellow
Halloween 2009 - Bad Moon Books
A massive nuclear attack has destroyed the major cities. Untold millions are dead. The survivors are starving savages.
But where others see only tragedy, one man sees opportunity.
Enter Julian Harvey: an A-list producer with a hot project, a private army, and a vision for America that will give her back her soul. It's the last Hollywood film crew, making the last Hollywood movie, spreading hope the only way Hollywood knows how...through total bullshit.
Half biting satire, half wicked apocalypse horror, Skipp & Goodfellow's The Day Before is "The Player meets The Road, in the crater formerly known as Los Angeles."
