Bricks of the Dead

There’s a lot of zombie stuff out there, and most of it is crap. People like to jump on bandwagons and produce quick tie-ins rather than investing love and effort into their creations. Luckily for you, I’m here to help separate the wheat from the chaff. Check back every Thursday, when I’m going to share the coolest zombie-related creation I can find out there on the web.

The Apocalypse Creation:

This week’s creation is brought to you by a fellow named Nannan Z of The Brothers Brick in a collection of photos called Beyond the Sky. The story revolves around year 2017, post apocalypse.  But letting the creation speak for itself we can a ruined building and a man scavenging for parts inside a warehouse or some other factory. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Left with the Dead is a novella set that directly follows the events of The Gathering Dead. It’s not a direct sequel, mind you. Instead, it follows the character of David Gatrell after he is stranded in the middle of New York, and surrounded by the dead. The actual sequel, The Rising Horde, was published earlier this year.

One thing that I really, really liked about this story was that it was efficient. A novella of about one hundred pages, it doesn’t have a lot of room to tell you a long, winding story. So instead of a lot of setup, boring description, and meaningless sideplots, we’re thrown right into the thick of the action, which doesn’t really let up until the book’s final page. It’s fast paced, action packed, and scary in interesting ways. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

The Zombie Creation:

This week’s creation, “Fleshpocalypse” by Aaron (-_-) is a pretty simple one, but it’s got a pretty great sense of humor about it, which really appealed to me. Flashpocalypse takes your typical zombie creation and uses it to say something about a certain product we all love around these parts. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

I’ve been wanting to read this book for a very long time. I admit I was solely sucked in by the cover. I really do think that person who created the quote “Never judge a book by its cover” should shut up. Oh sure you shouldn’t judge the ENTIRE thing by the cover but there is nothing wrong with a cover giving you a sense of feeling to tie into the story.

Dead Earth: The Green Dawn focuses on Deputy Jubal Slate whose stomping grounds are a small town in New Mexico but could have taken place in any small South Western town.

Communication with the world is quickly being cut off and a mysterious virus is taking down the citizens making them bedridden. Deputy Slate is a young guy but he isn’t new to the town. The Sheriff is sick himself so he is left running the show dealing with normal town problems to its citizens as they come along. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Plaguesville USA is an unusual virus outbreak story in the sense that we never get to see anything from the disease that wiped out 99% of the world population.

The story takes place in this post apocalyptic world, the remnants of the CDC have found a last hope to save the world in the person of an old man that survived the initial outbreak, his body might hold the key to human’s kind salvation. The catch is that the man is very old (102), and they must take him from Atlanta to San Francisco across the no man’s land the USA has become. As one might expect, our little group will have it all on the way. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
