<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>When a deadly virus is unleashed, the last few survivors become humanity's only hope.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>""Engaging, heartbreaking, and thrilling, with an expert pace that never touches the brakes." <b>-- <i>Publishers Weekly</i> (starred review)</b> <p/> In a thrilling debut from Nerdist, a ragtag group of survivors struggles to hold onto hope. <p/> A widespread disease has ravaged humanity--symptoms include: animalistic rage, violent outbursts, and a ravenous hunger for human flesh. The few people left are thrust together to fight for their lives, before the world becomes overrun by the infected. Asher, Wendy, and Rico try to reach an abandoned theme park, hoping for sanctuary. Although fear of the infected is ever-present, the group finds themselves facing some very human concerns, as well as new adversaries. <p/> Asher is Wendy's only friend, and she fears that she'll lose him if he ever discovers the dark secret she's been harboring. Reeling from heartbreak, Asher clings to Wendy as he struggles to heal. Rico is a seventeen-year-old rebel used to ditching school and partying all night--but can he outgrow his debauched behavior in order to protect a six-year-old boy who has suddenly fallen under his care? These three will have to overcome their own demons in order to save not only themselves, but the last vestiges of humanity.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An intricately woven, fresh take on the zombie genre that keeps you guessing until the very end. Genre fans will absolutely love this thrilling tale of survival, and what it means to be human." <b>--Rachel Heine, Editor-in-Chief, <i>Nerdist</i></b> <p/> "An arresting mix of heartfelt coming-of-age narrative and eating-of-flesh zombie thriller." <b>--Joel Cunningham, <i>Barnes & Noble Sci-Fi & Fantasy Blog</i></b> <p/> "<i>Welcome to Deadland</i> takes a fresh bite out of the zombie genre. Inventive, heartbreaking, compelling and highly recommended!" <b>-- Jonathan Maberry, <i>New York Times</i> best-selling author of <i>Rot & Ruin</i> and <i>Patient Zero</i>.</b> <p/> "With <i>Welcome to Deadland</i>, Zachary Tyler Linville firmly establishes himself as a powerful new voice in the horror genre. Part zombie survivalist procedural and part study of the psychological impact of supernatural trauma, <i>Welcome to Deadland</i> opens doors that most of us would prefer to quietly tiptoe past. And you will be very glad that it does. Fans of Max Brooks, Joe McKinney, and Jonathan Maberry will all find something to love in the harrowing, bracing, and, ultimately, deeply affecting world of Mr. Linville." <b>-- Scott Kenemore, national bestselling author of <i>Zombie, Ohio</i></b> <p/><br>
