We all fear death's dark spectre, but in a zombie apocalypse, dying is a privilege reserved for the lucky few. There are worse things than a bullet to the brain-much worse. The dead are walking, and they're hungry. Steven Jenkins, bestselling author of Fourteen Days and Burn The Dead, shares five zombie tales that are rotten for all the right reasons. Meet Dave, a husband and father with a dirty secret, who quickly discovers that lies aren't only dangerous...they're deadly. Athlete Sarah once ran for glory, but when she finds herself alone on a country road with an injured knee, second place is as good as last. Howard, shovelling coal in the darkness of a Welsh coal mine, knows something's amiss when his colleagues begin to disappear. But it's when the lights come on that things get truly scary. Five different takes on the undead, from the grotesque to the downright terrifying. But reader beware: as the groans get louder and the twitching starts, you'll be dying to reach the final page.

The same in the sense that all stories had zombies and death in them, but also different because each story was also about more than just zombies and death. One story was about a runner who got away from a group of zombies that were chasing her.
One about a zombie who was aware that he was one. Another story was about a cheating husband who was trapped in a hotel with his mistress and the man eventually died and became a zombie.
One story was about a man who worked at a cremation facility where he got rid of zombies, one story was about a former zombie who constantly gets fired from jobs, and a final story that was about a man who was stuck in a coalmine and fought off zombies until he died.
I loved all of these stories and there were even a few moments that creeped me out. Definitely give this collection of zombie stories a read if you're a big zombie fan. A 5 star rating because each story was good, because there were no repeats, and because I love the humor mixed in with the fear and death. ( )
