Yes, I'd read The Zombie Survival Guide as many times as the next guy, but my whole Z-Plan revolved around -not- getting close enough to the deadheads in order to fight them in hand-to-hand combat. No thanks. Just stay the hell away and put one between their eyes from a safe distance.

total rejoice.

thanks again, everybody.

this should be the last week of drafting, then a week of poring over before i send it to the Pendulum and try to forget about it for however long the round lasts.

I have many things I could say about this story, but I think I can sum it up best by saying:
Damn good read.

The last time I cried, cussed, and laughed during a story was back in 1996, I believe it was, while reading The Green Mile. Thom, you created a world so unbelievably believable, I got so swept up in it that half the time I forgot I was supposed to be checking for mistakes and whatnot. The characters became like old friends; their temperaments and personas exuding such depth and richness, I hated to see the story end.

Which is something considering it's over 100,000 words.     

I don't want to say any more, lest I spoil it for the rest of you. But do try and pick this one up once it's out; you won't regret it.

And if you do regret it, you clearly read the wrong book. Return it and buy the correct one. Lords of Night by Thom Brannan.

 :doublethumbsup:  Well done Gren, well done.
