For fans of Max Brooks's "The Zombie Survival Guide" and zombie
aficionados everywhere, a hilarious debut novel about life (and
love) after death.
Meet Andy Warner, a recently deceased everyman and newly minted
zombie. Resented by his parents, abandoned by his friends, and
reviled by a society that no longer considers him human, Andy is
having a bit of trouble adjusting to his new existence. But all
that changes when he goes to an Undead Anonymous meeting and finds
kindred souls in Rita, an impossibly sexy recent suicide with a
taste for the formaldehyde in cosmetic products, and Jerry, a
twenty-one-year-old car-crash victim with an exposed brain and a
penchant for Renaissance pornography. When the group meets a rogue
zombie who teaches them the joys of human flesh, things start to
get messy, and Andy embarks on a journey of self-discovery that
will take him from his casket to the SPCA to a media-driven
class-action lawsuit on behalf of the rights of zombies
everywhere.
Darkly funny, surprisingly touching, and gory enough to satisfy
even the most discerning reader, "Breathers" is a romantic zombie
comedy (rom-zom-com, for short) that will leave you laughing,
squirming, and clamoring for more.
