About the Zombie West Omnibus
The Wild West is hard enough to survive with its
native territory, wanted outlaws, and harsh terrain, but with a plague turning
civilized people into brain-eating monsters, survival becomes nearly
impossible.
Red has lost everything to the fast-spreading disease:
her family, her trust in mankind, and her hope for a better tomorrow. When she
meets Trace, a smooth-talking gambling man who’s more city boy than cowboy,
she’s forced down a path she’d been avoiding for years. Until his arrival,
she’d lived by a certain set of rules—don’t ask names, keep to yourself, don’t
let anyone too close—but the jackass of a man won’t let her be, and he has an
uncanny knack for appearing at all the wrong times and in all the wrong places.
Each, with a secret of their own, will need to learn
that only by working together do they have any chance of surviving The Zombie
West.
That is, if they don’t kill each other first.
Find these books on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, iTunes, Kobo, and Smashwords.]
Genre classification: YA/Western Romance/Action and Adventure/ with added zombies for utter mayhem.
REVIEW
I was extremely
intrigued by this trilogy…The Wild West and Zombies??…hmmm, a combination that
was sure to keep me entertained for hours, and it certainly did just that.
But
this series was not only about the undead. It was more a story of courage and
sacrifice, as an unlikely mix of people band together to survive against all
the elements; natural and supernatural. At times the pacing was a little slow
and I would have liked to see more action and interaction with the Zombies, but
this book was still exciting enough, with quite a few surprise plot twists,
that I was enthralled from start to finish. Red’s story was most
peculiar. The minute she walked into Trace’s life I was drawn to her and I had
to know more about her. Why was she “Wanted”? Why was she travelling alone? And
what in her past had made her such a fierce, feisty character, one who didn’t
trust very easily? As the story progressed, so the many questions surrounding
her increased; she was an enigma.
This
book was filled with adventure, action, tragedy and heartache, but it also held
a lot of hope, courage and uncharacteristic romance. I loved being sucked into
a different time and place, and getting to meet strange but interesting people.
This was a great read that will be enjoyed by a wide variety of readers.
About Angela Scott
Angela Scott hears voices. Tiny fictional people sit
on her shoulders and whisper their stories in her ear. Instead of medicating
herself, she decided to pick up a pen, write down everything those voices tell
me, and turn it into a book. She’s not crazy. She’s an author. For the most
part, she writes contemporary Young Adult novels. However, through a writing
exercise that spiraled out of control, she found herself writing about zombies
terrorizing the Wild Wild West–and loving it. Her zombies don’t sparkle, and
they definitely don’t cuddle. At least, she wouldn’t suggest it. She lives on
the benches of the beautiful Wasatch Mountains with two lovely children, one
teenager, and a very patient husband. She graduated from Utah State University
with a B.A. degree in English, not because of her love for the written word,
but because it was the only major that didn’t require math. She can’t spell,
and grammar is her arch nemesis. But they gave her the degree, and there are no
take backs.
