(First published in 2017) It is still the first week of the zombie apocalypse. The U.S. government is hard at work using the military to sweep and clear urban areas from the undead. President Adam Chambers is dead, but not quite. The mysterious pill that he received from a defecting member of a secret society has given him the gift of consciousness and conscience. Unfortunately, his living mind is trapped in a dead and slowly decaying body that is unable to speak.Elsewhere: Patrick, Reggie, Kayla, Dez, and Bethany continue their efforts to survive and fight back against the plague of zombies on the island of Ocracoke. As the world continues to fall apart, they find themselves dealing with threats such as unfriendly locals, murderous survivors, and the stench of death and decay that seems inescapable. They come to terms with the fact that a real-life zombie apocalypse is much less fun than it seems in movies and video games. Review for President Zombie:"Yes, there are hordes of the living dead attacking survivors (which is always cool). But this novel leaps away from the standard zombie tropes to include such elements as a secret society that's pulling the strings, political intrigue, and the leader of the free world struggling to regain his humanity. I'm looking forward to the next installment of this series."
