After his father suffers a nervous breakdown, young Noah Barnes must step into the role of family provider in the midst of a zombie apocalypse. A dark, heart-pounding story about fight and family, as one survivor confronts untold loss and struggles with unimaginable choices.

Worse Than Dying drops the reader into a small town in upstate New York toward the beginning of an inexplicable uprising of the living dead. This emotional and inspiring story is a more adult take on the zombie horror genre with fast pacing, mature themes, and, of course, plenty of grotesque, flesh-eating corpses.
