Zom-B: Underground Award-winning author by Darren Shan (author) (UK edition)

Can you hold on to your humanity when you’re a monster? How do you face yourself when you’re trapped in a living nightmare? For B Smith, death is not the end!

B has no memory of the last few months, having been in a coma since zombies attacked the school. When B awakes, the world seems like a whole new planet. A military regime has installed itself in the UK, and is forcing B to join the fight! But is it the right thing to do? The scientific experiments being performed on the zombies make B uneasy. Why exactly was B saved? Just what is this new regime? And is there anyone left in the world to trust?

Praise for Zom-B:

“Shan packs in the bites, and he rips out enough entrails for even the most jaded zombie fan… A series opener to sink your teeth into.” Kirkus

“Shan executes the transition from normalcy to wholesale terror masterfully.” Publishers Weekly
