As alien invaders amass a conquering army of zombies, a small band of rebels plans their resistance and revenge in this apocalyptic sci-fi series. The former Deputy Sheriff of Serenity, New Mexico, Jubal Slate lost his home and everyone he loved to the ever-growing zombie horde. But the zombies themselves are not the true enemy. It’s the invaders from another planet who are using demonic technology to raise an unholy army of the living dead. For Slate, the only thing left in life is payback. Together with a motley band of renegades, he’s making the treacherous journey to find the root of the global disaster. No matter how far he must go or how many undead warriors he must slaughter, they will stop at nothing to end the reign of the aliens.
When a small New Mexico town becomes a zombie breeding ground, one law man must fight to protect his home in this “thrilling, brutal apocalyptic novella” (Tim Lebbon, author of The Silence). Something bad has happened in Nevada. Rumors circulate about plagues and secret government experiments. Paranoia is spreading like wildfire. And it doesn’t help that the President isn't talking. In Serenity, New Mexico, Deputy Sheriff Jubal Slate has his hands full. It seems that half the town, including his mother and his boss, are sick from an unusual malady. Even more worrisome is the oddly-colored dawn sky. When a strange woman shows up in town with a nightmarish story about what really happened in the Nevada desert, no one believes her. Even as Serenity’s townspeople start dying, the story seems insane. But they won't stay dead for long. And Slate will find out the terrifying truth.
