<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Three unlikely heroes must save Britain from a rampaging horde of zombie cows. It began with a cow that just wouldn't die. It would become an epidemic that transformed Britain's livestock into sneezing, slavering, flesh-craving four-legged zombies.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>If you think you've seen it all -- WORLD WAR Z, THE WALKING DEAD-- you haven't seen anything like this. From the twisted brain of Michael Logan comes <i>Apocalypse Cow</i>, a story about three unlikely heroes who must save Britain . . . from a rampaging horde of ZOMBIE COWS! <p/><i>Forget the cud. They want blood</i>. <p/>It began with a cow that just wouldn't die. It would become an epidemic that transformed Britain's livestock into sneezing, slavering, flesh-craving four-legged zombies. <p/>And if that wasn't bad enough, the fate of the nation seems to rest on the shoulders of three unlikely heroes: an abattoir worker whose love life is non-existent thanks to the stench of death that clings to him, a teenage vegan with eczema and a weird crush on his maths teacher, and an inept journalist who wouldn't recognize a scoop if she tripped over one. <p/>As the nation descends into chaos, can they pool their resources, unlock a cure, and save the world? <p/>Three losers.<br>Overwhelming odds.<br>One outcome . . . <p/>Yup, we're screwed.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Apocalypse Cow treads that rare path between horrific and hilarious, which makes for a very fun read indeed. Give it a go." --<i>Christopher Moore, author of Lamb, Fool, and A Dirty Job</i> <p/>"<i>Apocalypse Cow</i> made me snort with laughter." --<i>Terry Pratchett, author of the award-winning and bestselling Discworld novels</i> <p/>"Logan has a flair for unique description (a muscled chest that made Arnold Schwarzenegger's pecs look like burst balloons) and for painting a mental picture almost photographic in its clarity. An impressive start for an author who's going places." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"This clever and very funny twist on the traditional zombie novel is exceedingly well executed (it approaches but never quite steps into parody territory), and it ends with a scene that pretty much demands a sequel. Great stuff for horror and fantasy fans." --<i>booklist, starred review Apocalypse Cow is a promising first novel, with a challenging premise that will be hard to top, so it'll be interesting to see what he has lined up next. Perhaps something equally horrifying (and hilarious) for the vegetarian set.-Rue Morgue</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>MICHAEL LOGAN is a Scottish journalist whose career has taken him across the globe.
