Coming to print: EMPIRE 2

[Dave Dunwoody]

COMING IN 2009

In Empire, the Grim Reaper walked a world that had been besieged by the undead for more than 100 years. He left his post as Death in order to hunt and kill zombies full-time, and the sequel picks up with him doing just that.

As winter approaches, Death – now known as Adam – crosses the American badlands in search of the girl he once befriended, Lily. She has been taken north, where the government and military have consolidated their resources into several fortified cities. The rest of the nation has been claimed by the rotters.

Adam has heard tales of the “King of the Dead,” whose troupe of sideshow curiosities are now an animalistic pack. They are Man’s greatest threat in the new America.

But Adam is sorely unprepared for the return of the zombie who once tasted of his flesh – a zombie transformed, driven by something more sinister than any virus.

Adam’s questions about his own origin and purpose haunt him, and he is close to the answers...but the worst of both the living and the dead are rising in his path, and he’ll have to cut a bloody swath to the cosmic endgame.

[HB Magazine]

How cool is that!! 

[Coscom Entertainment]

Neat.

Can you shrink the poster a bit, though?

[Dave Dunwoody]

Here's a smaller, non-animated version: http://i43.tinypic.com/2ec3hwj.png

I can go smaller but I'm not sure how legible it would be.

but it moves. that's sexy.

[Zombie Zak]

Nice!

PS: The animated one is cool.  It just moves and is freaky like!

I'm planning to drop by TFW's final Friday show tonight and perhaps share some tasty tidbits.

[Stephen Blundell]

Me too ... Empire was just such a great read, and I am sure Empire 2 will be nothing short of amazing.

[Licorice Lain]

You cannot hold the Empire down as Dunwoody is trying to tell us-you can only send a grim reaper named Adam to stir up trouble.

[Dave Dunwoody]

If the empire's inhabitants are lucky, Adam might just save their asses from being eaten. (Don't count on it)

Since, thanks to The Man, the "circus poster" ad is gone from the OP, here it is again:

Pocket Books will re-release EMPIRE in April  of next year. Expect the sequel not long after!

Jacob asked a while back if I had any other ideas for the title. I like EMPIRE'S END. What do you think?
