Coming this October: Ship of the Dead

From the Press Release:
Zombies took over San Francisco in John L. Campbell’s Omega Days, the first novel in his terrifying trilogy. The previously self-published eBook shot up to #2 on Amazon’s Top 100 Horror bestseller list and impressively stayed on the list for 17 weeks.

Following different groups of survivors through a plague-ravaged landscape, Omega Days introduced us to an all-out war of survival and redemption. Now, in the stunning sequel, after surviving a massive zombie attack, the survivors have come to realize that they are dangerously short of supplies, ammunition, and time.

Only a half mile offshore, the U.S.S. Nimitz aircraft carrier has run aground, and with its high steel walls it promises safety, shelter, food, medical supplies, and enough firepower to hold off the coming horde. But what the group quickly realizes is that the ship is actually a vast maze teeming with the relentless dead.

Synopsis:
In the weeks following the Omega Virus outbreak, survivors form desperate clusters, uniting to defend against hordes of the walking dead. But they can only hide for so long…

Father Xavier Church never wanted to be a leader. Nonetheless, he’s grown attached to his fellow survivors, and he won’t let anyone cause them harm—though he may be the one who inadvertently leads them to destruction…

Ex-con Bill Carnes may crave freedom, but he still prefers sticking with the group rather than fleeing to Mexico with his former cellmate TC. Maybe he’s changing. Or maybe the look in TC’s eyes is more dangerous than the undead…

EMT Rosa Escobedo gave up on hope after she watched the man she loved rise from the dead. But when a patient seems to start getting better, she can’t help but hope for a cure, even if it means risking her life…

As the numbers of the dead swell, the living are running out of safe havens—especially when the biggest threats lie within their own ranks.

Ship of the Dead arrives October 7, 2014.
