Publisher's Synopsis
Do we really need another book of zombie stories? They choke the markets and the airwaves already. Hasn't everything that's going to be said about the living dead already been done to death? Well, not quite. Rhysling Award finalist Daniel R. Robichaud envisions unusual worlds involving the living dead.
In these pages you will find five unusual situations, including:
A world where the black collar zombie wage slaves are the subject of moral, spiritual, and political agenda arguments. Drop into the mix with "They Shot Zombies, Didn't They?"
A father who must fight off two "Dead Head" addicts intent on smoking his pacified living dead son's ashes to attain the greatest high.
A seedy bar that has so far managed to hold off the zombie hordes by playing live music around the clock. Although it's true that "RnR Will Never D," maybe everyone else will . . .
A young punker getting a curb stomping is bad enough, but when his recovery is interrupted by the world plummeting into apocalypse, he will learn how far he needs to go to really be "PAF."
A dying mind watching its life pass in several cycles of surreal dream logic. Ever wondered what turning into one of the living dead might be like? "Baptism with Blue Bonets and Sweetbreads" offers a vision to make you think and chill your soul.
So maybe one more book of zombie stories is useful after all. We live in apocalyptic times, and Daniel R. Robichaud's whispers from the other side offer messages both reassuring and horrifying.
