Zombies On The Loose!

Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective is what’s taking over readers! Horror, fiction and gore loving fans want to take more than just a bite out of this popular novel, they want it all!

Zombies have been just as popular for years as vampires and werewolves. “Eat Me!” replaces the famous “Bite Me” when you are talking Zombie lingo. These undead creatures have made famous appearance in movies like Night of The Living Dead, Dead Snow, Dawn of the Dead have kept us all coming back for more flesh eating features. Just haven’t seen a sexy zombie romance…maybe there is one out there and we don’t know about it yet. It would be a little creepy dating a zombie, though. Think about it, with a vampire he wants your blood, but a zombie? OH he really wants to take a BITE out of you!!!

Do the zombies tapped into something deep within us, an unspoken fear about death? Maybe. There is something deep inside most of us that draws us to watch movies these movies. Fear strikes our hearts. Our stomachs do flip-flops, popcorn flies in the air…what more punishment could we ask for? Are we not all searching for that exciting thrill ride into the unknown? Or Is it the dark desire for flesh we really crave?

In Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective by Calvin A. L. Miller II, you really find out what it’s like to be a zombie. The desire to eat flesh and not be eaten is definitely there in this brilliant tale. Fans are hopping all over for dead guys who eat the living. WHY is it they eat the living again? OH yea, it helps with the pain of death. Sorry guys, it’s been awhile since I had on my zombie shoes! The exciting novel has been in the top sales on Kindle for awhile. So if you want a little more gore in your die- et check out this book!

Review of Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective

May 5th, 2010

Calvin A. L. Miller  II

Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective
ISBN: 9780615308777
Zilyon Publishing

Suddenly realizing that he’s become something less than what he was, Hetfield Madden struggles to come to grips with his new reality. The biggest challenge confronting this transition? Accepting the fact that he is now a zombie. Rather than merely the mindless, gruesome monsters so often depicted in movies, Hetfield and his fellow zombie ilk view themselves as infected outcasts burdened by a sickness from which they can’t seem to heal. Compounding their troubles is the fact that the government and society at-large have completely rejected them, preferring to herd them into internment camps than help them recover their humanity. In light of the omnipresent adversity confronting him, Hetfield is forced to undergo considerable spiritual reflection if he ever hopes to regain everything he’s ever cared about…

Taut and gripping, Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective is a fast-paced, compelling read. In it, author Calvin A. L. Miller II presents the age-old doomsday scenario of a post-apocalyptic world – only he tells it from the perspective of the unfortunate diseased masses. In so doing, he inspires a considerable amount of empathy in the reader, inviting him/her to consider just how it would feel to be afflicted by such a horrendous twist of fate. Furthermore, bolstered by a host of spiritual, religious, and political undertones, Het Madden offers considerably profound, thought-provoking commentary on our societal folkways and mores, bringing readers face-to-face with the not-so-subtle prejudice and hypocritical leanings that tend to taint even the slightest of our everyday decisions.

A thoroughly enlightening and entertaining read, Het Madden, A Zombie Perspective is a bona fide literary treat. Definitely not for the faint of heart or mind.

Available on Amazon, CreateSpace, Barnes and Noble, Smashwords, Lulu, and Indiependent Books in paperback and all eFormats for Kindle, Nook, iPad, PC, and everything else.
