"It's going to get a whole lot worse, before it gets a whole lot worser."
ANONYMOUS (Former) SURVIVOR. R.I.P
In the near future, van-life millennial couple Grace and Suede wake up to find their world, which seemed headed to an AI and robotic paradise, now descending into anarchy. Their enemy - zambies - AI controlled zombie corpses from the masses of humans who had been jacked into the new tech. Their minds now dead and their bodies on the hunt for the remaining survivors.
And that's just the first wave of terror #robotswarmingup.
Fleeing the chaotic city, Grace and Suede find themselves thrust into the lives of fellow survivors Colin the boomer, gen x mum Donna and her gen z daughter Ava. It's the beginning of an alliance as strong and sure as their chances of survival. So, like, not really very strong or sure.
The action is as relentless as the laughs in this high-tech terror takedown of humanity from award-winning author Matt J Pike. Strap yourself in for a wild ride of survival, adventure, betrayal against an enemy that's smarter, faster, more coordinated and driven than the humans it's picking off. Almost makes you wonder why we invented super intelligence in the first place. Sigh.
