Death Has Come Up Into Our Windows

The Zombie Bible: Book 1

Stant Litore

"Imagine sitting at a fire on a winter night and a man is warming his hands and telling you stories from the Bible, except the storyteller is Poe or Lovecraft. And you'll have some idea what this series is like."

It is 587 BC. A vast army lies encamped about Yirmiyahu's city, and a rebellious king has closed the city gates, locking in the living and the dead together. Only one man can see that the dead will overwhelm the city. Only one man can hear the quiet weeping of his God behind her veil in the temple. Only one man will stand against the evils practiced in a dying city.

But the things he sees and the things he must do will call into question every promise he has made, every duty he has sworn--to his wife, his God, and his city.

What Our Eyes Have Witnessed

The Zombie Bible: Book 2

Stant Litore

Nothing is broken that cannot be remade,
Nothing is ill that cannot be healed,
Nothing captive that cannot be freed.

Regina endures a death-in-life as a sex slave in the Subura, the ancient world's most terrible ghetto -- until a strange man sees her suffering and gives her a coat, a new name, and a new life.

The man is Polycarp, and he has the Gift of gazing into the eyes of the hungry dead and granting them rest -- a Gift that comes at a terrible cost. And ancient Rome may burn him for it.

It is AD 98. Polycarp and Regina -- their faith and their love -- will be tested as they have never imagined. And their story will shake you to the heart.

Strangers in the Land

The Zombie Bible: Book 3

Stant Litore

Four must stand against the dead: The aging prophetess Devora. Hurriya, the slave girl. Zadok, a legend among warriors. And the widower Barak, who has sworn to defend his homeland from a migration of walking corpses greater than has ever been seen. In this retelling of a tale from Judges, the strangers in the land must stand together if they are to rid the land of its blight.

No Lasting Burial

The Zombie Bible: Book 4

Stant Litore

A man wanders out of the desert one day and finds a village in ruins after a night of the walking dead. The survivors have thrown the snarling corpses into the Sea of Galilee, only to starve as the ghoul-haunted sea yields no fish. Will the stranger's coming bring back the fish, or the hungry dead?

I Will Hold My Death Close
