The Dead That Walk: Flesh-Eating Stories, edited by Stephen Jones
Of all the monstrous threats to humanity, zombies are the most horrific. That’s because they are not uncommon or alien — they’re human. (Or more correctly, were human.) Anywhere that there are humans, there are zombies, and they can never be completely annihilated because by breeding more humans we breed more zombies. In The Ultimate Book of Zombies, these decomposing monsters are demolished, decapitated, and destroyed. The gore flows as humans and zombies dispatch each other in blood-curdling battles fought in big-city alleys, high school playgrounds, and even suburban living rooms. In addition, the living dead are fully deconstructed in these wide-ranging and fascinating stories. More than just brain-eating assaults and acid-bath retaliations, the tales in this book explore all elements of zombie existence and their interaction with the humans they live among. Featuring stories by Weston Ochse, Robert E. Howard, Joe R. Lansdale, Kim Newman, Yvonne Navarro, Joe Hill, Stephen King , Richard Matheson, Clive Barker, H.P. Lovecraft, Ramsey Campbell, Michael Marshall Smith and more. |
