Keep Your Crowbar Handy

Jake O'Connor has problems. His time spent overseas with Britain's SAS Regiment still gives him nightmares, his social life is in the toilet, and his best friend is an unrepentant adrenaline junkie. Unfortunately, just as things finally seem to go his way, decomposing corpses of the recently dead begin rising to gnaw on the living. Soon the streets are glutted with mindless creatures hungering for only one thing: human flesh. Jake's unlikely group of friends needs to make tracks for some kind of refuge before they end up as hors d'oeuvres, but how to do that without being turned into drooling maggot-heads themselves? Now, a burned out combat journalist, a self-proclaimed adrenaline junkie, a health food store owner, and a ditzy pharmacy tech have to hold their own against legions of walking corpses. At first glance, none of them are likely candidates to survive for long in The Inevitable Zombie Apocalypse. But hey, stranger things have happened. Psychopaths, escaped criminals, and para-military white supremacists all stand in their way, not to mention the ever-increasing, zombie hordes. If Jake doesn't want to become one of the shambling dead he'll need to keep his whits about him, and his crowbar handy.

Life in the apocalypse sucks. Just ask Jacob O’Connor and his friends. After managing to survive the initial zombie outbreak, they thought they'd seen it all. Dead rising to devour the living, cities abandoned, wreckage everywhere. Basically, the fall of modern society. They considered themselves lucky to be alive. Unfortunately, all that was only the beginning…

Kat doesn’t know whether she and the crew can survive the apocalypse—or be doomed to stagger woodenly about, slowly assuming room temperature. Life in the zombie apocalypse blows. Just ask Katherine Cho and her friends. The unlikely crew of the Screamin’ Mimi thought they'd seen everything. Hungry corpses rising from the dead, chaos in the streets and people treated as hors d’oeuvres. Unfortunately, that was just the beginning.

Retributor Jeremiah Brandt has already riled up the zombie cavalry and he’s still angry over losing a huge bounty on a clan of serial killers. So when the Helena Cattlemen’s Association asks for help with a werewolf he jumps at the chance to take it on. There are a few little kinks to work through first before he can get down to the hunt–starting with zombies, a revengeful sister, and cold bath water. But the hunter soon becomes the hunted as Brandt discovers that his past mistakes have come back haunt him.

Lan Agstaff joined the army to escape from the memory of a failed love affair. But on the way to his first posting in Neotra, the suspended animation chamber malfunctions–and instead of peaceful nothingness he dreams endlessly about his lost lover. By the time Lan’s ship gets to Neotra tensions have reached breaking point, making all-out war virtually inevitable. Will Lan be consumed by the flashbacks of his ex-lover or can he recover from the torment of dreams?

The end is coming. Langley, Oklahoma has fallen. The once fortified town was blown to pieces by the mad General Hess and his R.U.S.T army and left abandoned. Not it’s free for zombies to roam its deserted streets. Making good their escape during the battle between the dead and Hess’s forces, what’s left of the Screamin’ Mimi’s crew and the remainder Langley’s residents flee south, hoping to reach the last haven of humanity east of the Rocky Mountains. But everything they’ve lived through has just been a warm up for what’s to come. The shambling hordes grow more massive by the day, secessionist forces want to add them to their ranks, either as soldiers or breeding stock, and the General is determined to use every resource at his disposal to hunt them down. And to top everything off, it seems a certain crowbar-toting combat journalist and one blue-haired ninja girl died in their fall from the top of Pensacola Dam into the floodwaters eighty feet below. Surviving the coming battle is a long shot at best, but the crew of the Mimi are used to bucking the odds. Maybe, just maybe, they’ve got one, last fight in them. After all, during the zombie apocalypse the only certain things in life are... Death and Taxes
