I just stumbled upon this review of my zombie story “In the Service of the Flesh” by the insightful Chuck McKenzie on the Horrorscope website. It’s always good to get a rave review. The last sentence is particularly pleasing.
‘In the Service of the Flesh’ is Rob Hood’s latest contribution to the zombie genre, and it’s a beaut. I can’t say too much about it without giving away the plot, so I’ll limit myself to mentioning only that it’s laugh-out-loud funny, and boasts levels of gore that would make George Romero blanch. This may well be the very best zombie tale I’ve ever read.
from a review of Australian Dark Fantasy and Horror 2007 Edition on the Horrorscope website, 4 March 2008.
Chuck has been writing his own online “real-time” tale of a zombie apocalypse on his “One Day At A Time” blog. Here’s where it began and here’s the latest installment. It’s definitely worth your while to check it out: a full-on zombie novel… and it’s free.
And here is the Brimstone Press website, so you can order of copy of the book that includes “…the best zombie tale…ever…”
