THE END OF THE WORLD - WITH FLESH-EATING ZOMBIES!
In the near future, a desperate and evermore controlling UK government attempts to restore a sense of national pride with a New Festival of Britain. But construction work on the site of an old church in south London releases a centuries-old plague that turns its victims into flesh-hungry ghouls whose bite or scratch passes the contagion -a supernatural virus which has the power to revive the dead-on to others.
"The Death" soon sweeps across London and the whole country descends into chaos. When a drastic attempt to eradicate the outbreak at source fails, the plague spreads quickly to mainland Europe and then across the rest of the world.
Told through a series of interconnected eyewitness narratives -text messages, e-mails, blogs, letters, diaries, and transcripts —this is an epic story of a world plunged into chaos as the dead battle the living for total domination.
Will humanity triumph over the worldwide zombie plague, or will the walking dead inherit the Earth?
