“When I heard that Armand Rosamilia was doing a Young Adult novel from his Dying Days universe, I was interested and a little taken aback.

I Like My Zombies Slow, Stupid, and Decomposing #SummerZombie
by Thomas M Malafarina There seems to be an ongoing debate among fans of the Zombie genre in both books and film as to whether zombies should be portrayed as slow and awkwardly moving as in George Romero movies and the Walking Dead TV show or if they should be wild and fast moving as …

Use Elevation to Your Advantage #SummerZombie
by Kenny Van Dyke Zombies (as you will learn if you survive long enough…) are not very bright, nor are they very dexterous. Any incline will slow and deter them, but if the terrain is steep enough that you have to use your feet and hands to climb up, chances are that most zombies won’t …

Teaser from Rated Z: Money Shot by Brahm Stroker #SummerZombie

At the same time, it pays tribute to everything you could love and hate about all these things. I can’t promise you are ready for it, but Rated Z is here and waiting to see if you are. …
