Overview:
In a sudden apocalyptic event with no warning, 99% of the world's population dies - instantly. For the 1% who survive, the inexplicable deaths of everyone around them and their new isolation in a dead world are like a nightmare. But forty-eight hours later, the nightmare gets worse when the dead rise and begin to walk. Attracted to light and sound, the mindless zombies instinctively kill any living thing they find.
Sunset is a novel narrating the experiences of several intriguing survivors in various regions of the U.S. - a twenty-something failure-to-launch who worked at a video store in Kansas, a computer programmer enjoying a vacation in Las Vegas, a retired cop in New York City, and a terrorist who was just about to blow up a building, along with himself and thousands of other people, before something pre-empted his act. (I thought it was rather daring to include this character in his line up.) As the survivors come out of their own personal shock and begin to seek other survivors, they find that the living can be more dangerous than the dead.
Given an event that destroys the fabric of civilized society, the violent and immoral individuals immediately rise up and begin to destroy those people still clinging to an illusion of law and order. The mindless zombies are little threat composed to the predatory living humans who have taken up arms against fellow survivors.
ENJOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!
And Blessed Are The Ones Who Care For Their Fellow Men!
