In this riveting, "gory, and action-packed" (Jonathan Maberry)
survival thriller, set in the expansive world of Robert Kirkman's
The Walking Dead series, three people from different walks of life
in China must join forces against the typhoon of undead as chaos
sweeps over Asia. In the aftermath of the zombie virus outbreak,
what remains of the Chinese government has estimated that one
billion walkers (called jiangshi) are currently roaming through the
country. Across this dramatic landscape, large groups of survivors
have clustered together for safety in villages and towns that have
been built vertically as a means of protection against the
unceasing wave of jiangshi. Before this devastation, Zhu was one of
the millions of poor farmers who left their rural roots for the
promise of consistent employment in one of China's booming factory
towns. Elena was an American teaching English in China while on a
gap year before beginning law school. Hengyen was a grizzled
military officer of some renown, and a passionate believer in his
nation's ability to surmount any obstacle. But with the
settlement's 3,000 mouths to feed and the scavengers having to
travel further and further in search of food, Zhu ends up at his
home village, where he is shocked to find survivors. Does he force
them to join the settlement or keep their existence a secret?
Meanwhile, Hengyen is tasked with the impossible: fortifying the
Beacon against a 100,000-strong "typhoon" of walkers header their
way. Even though he realizes that the Beacon hardly stands a
chance, Hengyen is a believer and will stand with his compatriots
to the very last, bringing him into conflict with Zhu, who intends
to flee the path of the typhoon and make for the safety of China's
dramatic mountain ranges before it's too late. Given "two decaying
thumbs up," (Jonathan Mayberry, author of Rot & Ruin), this
book is sure to get your heart racing and leave you wanting more!
