The dead walk. The world burns. And one man must escape the nightmare.
Mike McKnight had it all—a blockbuster movie career, wealth, and fame. But when he’s convicted of a murder he doesn’t remember, he’s locked away in a psychiatric facility, drugged and forgotten.
Then the world ends.
A lethal virus sweeps the country, reanimating the dead and turning them into relentless, flesh-eating monsters. Trapped inside a collapsing asylum filled with maniacs and the infected, Mike seizes his chance to escape. But the world outside is worse than he ever imagined.
With only a handful of survivors, he must navigate a wasteland teeming with the undead, uncover the dark origins of the outbreak, and fight to stay alive in a world where the only rule is kill or be eaten.
A relentless, edge-of-your-seat thriller with brutal action, shocking twists, and an unforgettable hero.
Fans of Max Brooks, J.L. Bourne, and Mark Tufo—as well as post-apocalyptic worlds like The Walking Dead and The Last of Us—will be gripped by the relentless survival horror of the LZR-1143 zombie apocalypse series.

The third novel in legendary author and Discworld creator Terry Pratchett and award-winning science fiction writer Stephen Baxter’s “Long Earth” series, which Io9 calls “a brilliant science fiction collaboration.”
2040. The Long Earth is in chaos. . . .
The cataclysmic Yellowstone eruption is shutting down civilization. Whole populations flee to the relative safety of myriad stepwise Earths. Sally Linsay, Joshua Valiente, and Lobsang have all been involved in the perilous post-eruption clean-up.
But Joshua faces a crisis close to home. From a long childhood hidden deep in the Long Earth, a new breed of young, super-bright post-humans is emerging—but “normal” human society is turning against them, driven by ignorance and fear. For Joshua, caught up in the conflict, a dramatic showdown seems inevitable.
Meanwhile, U.S. Navy Commander Maggie Kauffman embarks on an incredible journey, leading an expedition to the unexplored limits of the far Long Earth.
And Sally is contacted by her long-vanished father, Willis Linsay, inventor of the original Stepper device. Ever the maverick, he is planning a fantastic voyage of his own—across the Long Mars. But what is his true motivation?
For Joshua, for humankind, for the Long Earth itself—everything is different now. Joshua becomes embroiled in the plight of the Next: the super-bright post-humans who are beginning to emerge from their “long childhood” in the community called Happy Landings, located deep in the Long Earth. Ignorance and fear have caused “normal” human society to turn against the Next. A dramatic showdown seems inevitable. . . .

Winner of 7 awards including the Prism Award for Time Travel
London, September 1888
For veteran Time Rover Jacynda Lassiter, her current job assignment is no big deal: Find an overdue “time tourist” and return him to 2057, before he changes history.
But when another Rover goes missing in Whitechapel the job becomes personal. Can she trust the two Victorian gentlemen who come to her aid, or do they have their own dark secrets? And who are the Transitives, the mysterious shapeshifters who can alter their identities? Is that magic or something else?
With her employer nearly bankrupt, Jacynda is literally running out of time. But being orphaned in the past isn’t the only threat she’ll face, not with Jack the Ripper on the hunt.
Unless she can outwit a murderer, her Victorian sojourn will end in the grave.
