Dead Living on The Indie Spotlight
There is a short question and answer over on The Indie Spotlight about Dead Living. Nothing major, just about how the novel was created, information about me, things like that. Hopefully it’ll catch the eyes of a few readers interested in a pretty cool zombie tale. 🙂

“Dead Living” is the most original zombie book I have ever read, and without a doubt the best. The book was better than just good, it was EXCELLENT! The depths of the characters were engaging and became endearing through each flip of a page.
The plot, twists, and turns in the book would not allow me to put the book down until I finished it. It was easy to root for the good guys and to want a nasty ending for the bad guys. The characters were easy to follow. I did not get lost or forget who the characters were, because each had an engaging, unique personality that made lasting impressions.
The character “Aaron” made the book the most unique zombie book to date, ever. I never saw it coming that he would be immune to zombie attacks.
I have loved zombie and horror books, as well as movies, since childhood. I am 49 years old, so I’ve read and watched quite alot. However, the character “Aaron” made your story shine with a vitality making your book into much more than just a zombie tale. “Aaron” became the shining force and grace, that gave hope to a world consumed with death, despair, and pain.
Without a doubt “Dead Living” could become a sequel or a stand alone novel just as it is written. You have great talent as a writer and I look forward to reading more books that you pen from your imagination. Reading your book reminded me of Steven King and Dean Koontz. Especially, Dean Koontz because “Aaron” was a loveable, engaging, and unique character similar to Dean Koontz’s “Odd Thomas” character.
Excellent job and keep writting!
Sincerely,
Anita McCurry

Wow, thank you 🙂 I’m so glad you liked it. I wanted to try to tackle the good side of humanity as well as the bad, and Aaron was definitely the key to the good side. 🙂
