Forever Zombie: A Collection of Undead Guy Tales includes 12 short stories.
Zombies and quick-witted humor? You bet! Not your typical blood and gore zombie tales, even non-zombie fans will enjoy these stories. These tales will make you almost believe that the existence of zombies is a distinct possibility and that life after the undead might be much different than you might imagine. Consider the plight of the Grim Reaper when he descends upon the law offices of Romero, O'Bannon, Fulci & Flanders only to find his next "client" is already dead in "Every Death You Take". Or how about "The Farmer's Daughter" who brings her boyfriend home to meet the family and he isn't exactly what they imagine a future son-in-law might be like. Or a creepy visit to a zombie museum in the middle of nowhere in "A Night At The Zombie Museum". And who do you think might be smarter? A gang of zombie bikers or the I.Q. delinquent hillbillies in "Ozark Hicks and Zombie Chicks"? Well, it's a close call. And it's all here in "Forever Zombie: A Collection of Undead Guy Tales" and each story has a special touch that will keep you reading far into the night. Think you can read just one tale each night before bed? Try two or three. Or maybe you'll still be reading the last of the 12 short stories included in the collection before the sun comes up the next morning. But as an added precaution, make sure you check your pulse every once in awhile.

Review by author Joe McKinney
"Forever Zombie caught me by surprise. There is a sinister humor here reminiscent of Edward Gorey, and a playfulness that echoes Roald Dahl. It's a curious mix, but it works great. Trust me: whichever way your pleasure tends, whether it's a subtly placed bit of characterization or a deliciously plotted twist ending, you're going to find something to love here. Forever Zombie is a hit!" --Joe McKinney, Dead City and Apocalypse of the Dead
