This is ORIGINS... The world at the brink of extinction.







Thousands of years after a zombie apocalypse wiped out the majority of humans, the world is a very different and harsh place. It's safest to live behind the fortified walls of the Kingdom of Golden Rock, or it least it had been. Rumors of an army of dead led by a man calling himself The Scholar have proven true, and even the most secure cities are no match for his undead soldiers. The Scholar's goal is to crush the world of the living, but he also wants to capture a simple baker named Saffi, though no one seems to know why.
Saffi's father vows to protect his daughter, and flees The Scholar's path, only to fall prey to other evils of the world outside the walls. In just one day's time, Ward and Saffi's lives will be forever altered, and the secret about why The Scholar wants her will be revealed.





Have you ever seen a roadside cross, and wondered why it was there? What if it isn't a memorial, signifying a loss and memory of a loved one?
What if the cross is bait? Would you visit a haunted cross? Even if you knew the ghost was real, and had a taste for human flesh?
How badly do you want to find out?





A shipwreck; a deserted island; a horde of zombies; a single family fighting to survive.

After a tropical storm, the Robinson family discovers a mysterious boat shipwrecked on their shore. An attempt to scavenge the wreckage awakens something dark and extremely dangerous. With the full weight of the undead descending down upon them, can the family prepare a strong enough defence? Or will they become the latest victims of a virus-ridden world?

The classic tale, inspired by Robinson Crusoe, written by Johann David Wyss, adapted by Perrin Briar, is an adrenalin-pumping adventure of zombie survival. If your family was trapped on an island, what would you do?

Part of the Blood Memory universe. 






The dead have risen, attacking humans and tearing down civilization. These are the stories of people trying to survive in a world of madness and death.

From small town bus stations being overrun by newly infected, a desolate highway that could lead to safety or death, to a daycare center full of desperate children running out of food. Some rise to the challenge, while others fall to madness, and some give in to despair.

There is also a sneak peek at the YA horror novel Slave of the Fae, Book 1; Fire Bird.

Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Stockholm Club. 

Have we got a special treat for you tonight! We’re privileged to have with us a highly talented country and western singer, all the way from exotic Birmingham. I know that you’ll give the lad a fantastic Yorkshire welcome. 

Don’t forget, the first drink is on the house. 

Now before all you geriatric parasites slouch over to the bar and start making your way through my alcohol, I’d just also like to mention that there is a chance that some of my staff may turn into flesh-eating zombies as the night wears on. 

In fact, I think I can confidently predict that most of you will resemble jackal-stripped zebra carcasses before the dawn sun makes an appearance. 

So please, enjoy tonight’s live entertainment and drink like there’s no tomorrow. Let’s face it; you ain’t going to be seeing it. 

-------------------------------------------------------------- 

Despite attempts to quarantine the Breakspear housing estate, the infection has somehow spread further into the city. Whole neighbourhoods are falling to the undead plague. 

On the outskirts, the staff and customers of the Stockholm Club have no idea that the moaning dead are slowly shambling towards them.

From the sanctuary of the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff, Wales to the promise of an escape through the Channel Tunnel in Folkestone, Kent, their only hope for survival and for the possibility of a ending the zombie outbreak, the diverse group of people experience loss while they hope for success but at all at a very high price.

In this short tale, Lord of the Flies meets 28 Days Later as, one by one, grown-ups abandon children to their fates. Desperate and terrified, the kids scrabble their resources together in order to somehow survive, but young Karin and her brother quickly learn that no one is more vulnerable than children. Or more ruthless. 





Survive the infection! Survive the Infected! 

Slow Burn: Infected picks up the story of Zed, Murphy, and Jerome where Slow Burn: Zero Day ended. 
All three have all been infected but have not succumbed to the most pernicious symptoms of the virus. They’re not the mindless cannibals that most infected are. Nevertheless, their band of survivors, fearful about the trio’s infections, have ostracized them. 

Now, back on the street, with weapons to defend themselves but little food in their packs, they embark on a search for Murphy’s family while following the rumor of a safe haven in the form of a doomsday bunker under a house in east Austin. 

But the world is more hazardous than they could have guessed. They expect violence from the voracious infected but they have harsh lessons to learn about the lethality of the uninfected. And without people to support the infrastructure of modern civilization, they find that danger comes in many forms. 





This edition contains the first two books in the Zombie Overload series. 

Admit it. You think about it, fantasize about it, live through it in your head. But what would you do if zombies became a reality? If you actually were to see the dead walk, attack and kill people you know - who then rise right in front of your eyes? What would you do when the undead don't follow the script you've played out - over and over - in your own mind? 
Find out what happens to a woman in central Illinois when her life is 
turned upside down. Zombies become real and so does the danger. Her 
family means the most to her, but can she keep them alive? Can she keep 
herself alive? 
In this double edition that begins with a novelette, you are a big part of the story. The main character "speaks" to you often and you're invited into her thoughts - which can be quite humorous at times. She's not perfect and she knows it. She strong and she's a fighter...but she doesn't know it.

No one wants to know about what happens the day the apocalypse begins. 

That day is nothing but blood and bones. Families being torn apart. Flesh being torn from bone. Blood. Entrails. 

Screams. So many screams. 

Allow me to correct myself: No one wants to live the day the apocalypse begins. Everyone wants to hear the stories, wince at the cringe-inducing details. However, I know people who have lived through this day. I have lived through this day. So instead, I will tell you about what happened afterword. 

About Riley O'Hara, a boy in rural Colorado who assembled a group of foragers, survivors, who worked together to protect each other and live on long past most others. I'll tell you about Grey, Riley's bother. And Valentina, a young orphan. And I'll tell about Evangeline and Luca and Neo and Marlowe. 

Yes, I'll tell about all of them. Most importantly, though, I'll tell about me. 

Me--Ebony Jay. 

About the story of how I survived Zombie Island.

Henry is determined to fight to the very end to make their sexy, mercurial relationship work no matter what staggers in their path. 

Along with their ragtag band of survivors, they must travel south to face Henry’s fears. There will be joys and loss but, in the end, is love enough to hold them together?

Late Fall - 2010

Reuters - Estimates say that nearly three thousand people nationwide, and fifteen thousand people worldwide have died of the H1N1 virus or Swine flu and nearly eighty thousand cases have been confirmed in hospitals and clinics across the United States and the world, the World Heath Organization reported. The influenza pandemic of 2010, while not nearly as prolific as the one that raged in 1918 still has citizens around the world in a near state of panic.

New York Post (Headlines October 31st) - Beware! Children Carry Germs! - Halloween Canceled!

New York Times - (Headlines November 3rd) - Swine flu claims latest victim - Vice President surrounded by family and friends at the end.

Boston Globe - (Headlines November 28th) - Swine Flu Vaccinations Coming!

Boston Herald - (Headlines December 6th) - Shots in Short Supply - Lines Long!

National Enquirer - (Headlines December 7th) - The Dead Walk!

There would be no more headlines.

It started in a lab at the CDC (Center for Disease Control), virologists were so relieved to finally have an effective vaccination against the virulent swine flu. Pressure to come up with something had come from the highest office in the land. In an attempt at speed the virologists had made two mistakes, first they used a live virus and second they didn't properly test for side effects. Within days hundreds of thousands of vaccinations shipped across the US and the world. People lined up for the shots, like they were waiting in line for concert tickets. Fights broke out in drugstores as fearful throngs tried their best to get one of the limited shots. Within days the CDC knew something was wrong. Between 4 and 7 hours of receiving the shot roughly 95% succumbed to the active H1N1 virus in the vaccination. More unfortunate than the death of the infected was the added side effect of reanimation, it would be a decade before scientists were able to ascertain how that happened. The panic that followed couldn't be measured. Loved ones did what loved ones always do, they tried to comfort, their kids or their spouses or their siblings, but what came back was not human not even remotely. Those people that survived their first encounter with these monstrosities usually did not come through unscathed, if bitten they had fewer than 6 hours of humanity left, the clock was ticking. During the first few hysteria ridden days of The Coming as it has become known, many thought the virus was airborne, luckily that was not the case or nobody would have survived. It was a dark time in human history. One from which we may never be able to pull ourselves out of the ashes from.





Whispering Pines is a classic, quiet, private American subdivision on the edge of Asheville, NC, set in the pristine Blue Ridge Mountains. Which is good since the zombie apocalypse has come to Western North Carolina and really put suburban living to the test!
Surrounded by a sea of the undead, the residents of Whispering Pines have adapted their bucolic life of block parties to scavenging parties, common area groundskeeping to immediate area warfare, neighborhood beautification to neighborhood fortification.

But, even in the best of times, suburban living has its ups and downs what with nosy neighbors, a strict Home Owners’ Association, and a property management company that believes the words “strict interpretation” are holy words when applied to the HOA covenants. Now with the zombie apocalypse upon them even those innocuous, daily irritations quickly become dramatic struggles for personal identity, family security, and straight up survival.

Welcome to normal life in Z-Burbia!

INFECTED FREAKS VOLUME ONE: FAMILY
FIRST

Armageddon began the day Red Dead entered the solar system. Fear leads to blame, blame
leads to choosing sides--and both sides have bombs. Civil War in America turned
into a worldwide conflict, leaving the planet in a new dark age.

Nothing has stirred about in the ravaged mountains for two years. Abraham's heart is
broken save the fading hope of bringing his lost children home. He sets out
without a destination searching for signs of life--what he finds is something
infected.

Living husks riddled in fungus and straight out of a nightmare threaten the region. No
one knows if the infected freaks are some sort of zombie created in a lab or
something alien related to the approaching red planet.

Where do you go when everything in the world is destroyed?
Who do you trust when each survivor is a wolf in sheepskin?
And how do you stop something you know so little about?

For Abraham Heinz, understanding that help isn't on the way is the first step in
the long journey to finding peace in a world, so cold.

Survival is going to take him beyond moral limits. Hell on Earth is here in Jason
Borrego's survival horror adventure--INFECTED FREAKS.

"I wasn’t afraid of death. If I died, it would be over. My worst fear wasn’t of dying, it was of living. Living, while everyone around me had their flesh savagely torn from their bodies to be shoved into the festering and ever-hungry mouths of zombies. It terrified me, right down to my very core, to be alive while the rest of the world was dead." 

During the Second Great Depression, twenty-four year old Orissa Penwell is forced to drop out of college when she is no longer able to pay for classes. Unable to find a job, she moves in with her aunt in Indianapolis. Down on her luck, Orissa doesn’t think she can go any lower. 

She couldn’t be more wrong. A virus breaks out across the country, leaving the infected crazed, aggressive and very hungry. 

Orissa is used to only being responsible for herself. When she finds herself a reluctant leader of a group of survivors, she must make a choice: set aside her issues and help the others or go off alone in search of her own family and friends.





Five ordinary people must pay the price of survival at the end of the world. 

A mysterious virus suddenly strikes down millions. Three days later, its victims awake with a single purpose: spread the Infection. As the world lurches toward the apocalypse, some of the Infected continue to change, transforming into horrific monsters. 

In one American city, a small group struggles to survive. Sarge, a tank commander hardened by years of fighting in Afghanistan. Wendy, a cop still fighting for law and order in a lawless land. Ethan, a teacher searching for his lost family. Todd, a high school student who sees second chances in the end of the world. Paul, a minister who wonders why God has forsaken his children. And Anne, their mysterious leader, who holds an almost fanatical hatred for the Infected. 

Together, they fight their way to a massive refugee camp where thousands have made a stand. There, what's left of the government will ask them to accept a mission that will determine the survival of them all—a dangerous journey back onto the open road and into the very heart of Infection.
