Yeah the character writing is not great. Some sheer idiocy and cringy decisions. It reads fast so I'm powering through but not a good introduction to Laymon for me.. lol. I'm taking a break from the Expanse series (just finished book 5) and need to read some of these damn books I actually bought and not loaned.

That's fairly common with Laymon to be honest. His books are sorta like the old slasher movies. The thing is, for all their faults, Laymon can propel me through a book. Even with the ones I didn't like, I've never abandoned one of his books.

Zombies!: Tales of the Walking Dead edited by Stephen Jones is $1.99 at Amazon. I don't usually post anthologies, but authors here include:
A reviewer says this is essentially a reprint of The Mammoth Book of Zombies with an extra story by Jo Fletcher, so if you have that one, you may not need this one. |

You could Google "AMC NOS4A2" if you're looking for a spoiler answer. The first images that come up should answer your question.

Abandon by Blake Crouch is $1.99 at Amazon. I love me a good 'disappeared town' story.

The Melting Dead by Doug Lamoreux is FREE!
Look at that title. Look at that price. Do you really need a synopsis to know if you're going to snag a copy? You do? Okay, here it is, Mr. Demanding: Quote:

Hmm... Here's one I'm sharing mainly because it's a $0.99 author debut from a major publisher:
If You Go Down to the Woods by Seth C. Adams is $0.99 at Amazon. Quote:

Lovecraftian horror novel The Immortal Body by William Holloway is $0.99 at Amazon. I almost passed it by because the synopsis didn't sound very good. Ironically, a reviewer did a better job of saying what the book is about and convinced me to give it a whirl.
The following is from Robert DeFrank's review. The author owes him a favor: Quote:

Alan Dean Foster's science fiction/horror Into The Out Of is on sale for $1.20 at Amazon. Not a great book, but I enjoyed it when I read it years ago.
The new cover is dull compared to the original. Quote:
