Edward P. Cardillo

"The Creeping Dead" is a different kind of zombie novel, one that actually ends in a single book! The author goes back and forth in time over a three day period, introducing life and characters on a small island resort on the Jersey shore, and the fateful days of violence (hurricane, flooding and zombies). The final quarter of the story focuses on the survival of some of these characters and can't be put down.

Readers will cheer for some characters and hope that others are lost in the show more violence - the author making it easy for us to hate them. Summer is coming to an end and everyone is looking forward to the annual parade and day-long festivities. Many residents dress in clown make-up and costumes, joining hundreds of professional clowns that come every year to march in the parade. Clowns are fun, right? With a "perfect storm" heading their way, this is destined to be a day everybody will remember - providing they survive.

Great job Mr. Cardillo! Thank you for writing a wonderful story!
