Book Review: First Time Dead by TW Brown (Ed.)

First Time Dead represents the first book in a two-volume set of zombie-infected tales. What sets this apart from other such anthologies is that the authors are all first-timers. It may seem risky, but May December Publications gladly takes that risk and offers a collection of great additions to the zombie genre. The collection offers a wonderfully mixed take on the living dead, running the gamut from the day to day survival (The Overpass by John Lemut and Everything I Know About Zombies I Learned from "Star Trek" by Sam Christopher) to stories of a zombie's guilt (Forgive Me, Father, For I Have . . . Burp by Michael J. Evans) and one woman's struggle to keep her family "safe" (Just Another Day by Chantal Boudreau), to name a few. A fine gathering of new voices, and as a fan of zombie tales, this makes a nice addition to my collection. Highly recommended!

And I'm not just saying that because I'm in book 2 . . . .
