Andrew Hook's short novel is a masterpiece of misfortune in the modern age. John Baker’s life keeps going from bad to worse. Against a background of global recession and financial meltdown, first he loses his job and then he loses his girlfriend… Oh, and then, of course, there are the zombies…
“There are some beautifully described moments of slick gore that left me cringing... This is natural and real, which, when you're working with a topic such as zombies, really helps bring the piece to life and helps those shivers trickle down your spine.” – Sarah Pinborough
“A work that addresses metaphysical and philosophical concerns… Hook has a lot of fun with the idea of the zombie apocalypse, low key at first but escalating to a crescendo courtesy of hordes of the living dead.” – Peter Tennant, Black Static, October 2009
“An existentialist zombie story! Funny and clever.” – Andrew Humphrey
“Andrew Hook is a wonderfully original writer.” – Graham Joyce
