Vegan Zombie Apocalypse -by Wol-vriey

 

 

 In the post-apocalypse worlderness, zombies rule the earth. They're allergic to meat, and brains literally make them explode.

Zombies now eat blood potatoes, parasitic tubers grown in the flesh of humancows corralled in maximum security farms.

The necros, barbaric human nomads travelling the worlderness in floating villages, worship the zombies. The necros both eat the zombies, and wear clothes made from them; they live in houses built of bricks of undead flesh.They also keep zombies as sex slaves.

Two fugitives meet in the ancient ruins of Texas. The first is Soil 15-f, a womancow who's escaped her farm a week before she's due to be killed and her blood potato crop harvested. The second fugitive is Able Kane, former head necros food technician, now sentenced to death for heresy.

I don’t know where to start. I thought I had pretty much seen it all and read it all when it comes to the zombie genre. I was wrong.

 Welcome to a world where zombies live on potatoes grown in human flesh, humans cannibalize those who have had their potatoes harvested, and sex as you know it is a thing of the past, but don’t forget your jar of condom worms in case you get lucky. 

Not for the easily offended, the faint of heart or those with a weak stomach. The gore and gross out factor is broken up by occasional humor. You won’t know whether to laugh or vomit.

 If you are a fan of the bizarre, or if you want a change of pace from your usual zombie fare, this is for you. I guarantee you have never seen zombies like these before.
I was given a free copy by the author for review.

Letting The Demons Out - Ray Wallace

"The demons are waiting... Ancient gods. Flesh-eating immortals. Sentient machines. A gun wielding monster. And a man with a unique and terrible addiction. They all reside within the pages of LETTING THE DEMONS OUT, the debut collection from Ray Wallace, author of ESCAPE FROM ZOMBIE CITY: A ONE WAY OUT NOVEL and THE HELL SEASON. Face your fears. Enjoy the nightmares."

Looking for thrills, chills, and a few giggles too? All can be found in Letting The Demons Out. 

My favorites of these 16 entertaining tales were..

"It Came From The Swimming Pool" Aside from the fact that what is in that pool may scare the bejeezers out of you I loved these characters and was reminded that happiness is all about perception.

"A Dream Of An Endless Highway" A scary little story set in the not too distant future where cars drive themselves. I'm still laughing over the head of CETA but I'm not going to tell you what that stands for because I don't want to deprive you of your giggle when you read the book.

"Letting The Demons Out" Because I have a fear of psychotic religious fanatics the way some people have a fear of clowns.

"Who's Laughing Now" A fun read in which the author tips his hat to Evil Dead 2
and last but not least..

"Test Run" which surprised me to enjoy it so much because I am not usually a fan of alien stories, and I definitely didn't see the end coming.

Peaceable Kingdom by Jack Ketchum

Description

This landmark collection gathers more than thirty of Jack Ketchum's most thrilling stories. "Gone" and "The Box" were honored with the prestigious Bram Stoker Award. Whether you are already familiar with Ketchum's unique brand of suspense or are experiencing it for the first time, here is a book no aficionado of fear can do without.
This novel contains graphic content and is recommended for regular readers of horror novels 


32 short stories that won't let you down.  My favorites were Megan's Law, about a man who is informed that a sexual predator has moved into his neighborhood, The Rifle, in which a mother finds her own way to deal with her very troubled child, and The Great San Diego Sleazy Bimbo Massacre, a dark but humorous story of a woman who enlists the help of a friend in her plan to do away with her husband. Peaceable Kingdom will haunt me for a while.
