     His time spent overseas with Britain's SAS Regiment still gives him nightmares, his social life is in the toilet, and his best friend is an unrepentant adrenaline junkie. Unfortunately, just as things finally seem to go his way, decomposing corpses of the recently dead begin rising to gnaw on the living. Soon the streets are glutted with mindless creatures hungering for only one thing: human flesh. Jake's unlikely group of friends needs to make tracks for some kind of refuge before they end up as Hors d'oeuvres, but how to do that without being turned into drooling maggot-heads themselves? Now, a burned out combat journalist, a self-proclaimed adrenaline junkie, a health food store owner, and a ditzy pharmacy tech, have to hold their own against legions of walking corpses. At first glance, none of them are likely candidates to survive for long in The Inevitable Zombie Apocalypse. But hey, stranger things have happened. Psychopaths, escaped criminals, and para-military white supremacists all stand in their way, not to mention the ever-increasing, zombie hordes. If Jake doesn't want to become one of the shambling dead he'll need to keep his whits about him, and his crowbar handy.

    Given enough time and the right conditions life will always find a way, even in the interior of a comet as it speeds through the interstellar void. 30,000 years ago this comet swept by a very different Earth, a planet where two types of humans struggled to survive against the environment and each other. The lethal virus that rained down from the sky proved to be the death knell for those who called themselves The People, but through a mother and her daughter they leave a legacy that will come to be the salvation of humanity when the comet returns with its deadly pathogen. Rusty Weber, a nerdy high school senior, doesn't know how or why he survived the Prionic Flu but sees the newly-depopulated Earth as a fresh start, a chance to do things his way. His journey takes an unexpected turn when he discovers that the girl he secretly loves has also survived, and he sets out to find her in this new and often dangerous world.

Instead, this book details the reality of a young man's journey in a depopulated world that lacks little in the way of material goods, but much in the way of societal structure.
