Xombies: Apocalypticon by Walter Greatshell
A man-made plague has turned most of the women on Earth into demonic predators, Xombies, wiping out human civilization. Now a group of refugees aboard a nuclear submarine must dare venture ashore in search of provisions, fellow survivors...and the desperate hope of a cure.
"By far the best horror novel I've read. Hell, I'd check out anything that [Greatshell's] written at this point." -- Jason Thompson, author of Manga: The Complete Guide
"A triumph, both epic in scope and entirely unpredictable, and anchored by one of the most refreshing and unique voices in modern horror fiction. Expect great things from Mr. Greatshell in the future." -- Nate Kenyon, author of The Bone Factory
Walter Greatshell is the author of Xombies: Apocalypse Blues, Xombies: Apocalypticon, and the upcoming thriller Mad Skillz.
