The New Dead (again)
January 24th, 2010 • Posted in Book News |
They’re almost here … those zombie crowds, ready to eat off your face and shamble (or run, if you’re a modern zombiephile) after you.
My good friend Christopher Golden has edited a splendid anthology of all-new zombie stories (including my novelette In The Dust), and you really, really need to get this. Here are the relevant links:
USA: St Martin’s Griffin
UK: Piatkus

I picked up the Nightshade edition of The Living Dead and thought that was an excellent read (introduced me to Dan Simmons – that guy is phenomenal).
I’m a sucker for a good zombie tale.
Any chance of a taster (pun intended) of what yours is about…?
Cheers

Is this the same book as THE NEW DEAD?

Steve, yep, this is the UK title from Piatkus.
And Rich, Dan Simmons is one of my favourite writers. He’s written in just about any genre – try THE CROOK FACTORY for a great historical novel.
My story is online somewhere as a taster, I believe … I’ll look for it and post a link.

I plan on grabbing my copy at the Keene signing in Baltimore next month. Tim, you should try and make it there. Baltimore in Februrary is not to be missed.

I’d love to Jeff. But I’ll be over in July for Necon.
