Book excerpt: When the world ends, you adapt or die. Zookeeper Imogen is flying high. She loves her work caring for endangered Iberian Lynxes and a promotion is on the horizon. Then a colleague throws her under the bus and her entire life goes into free-fall. Mike dropped out of college to raise his sisters. Now, twenty years later, it’s time to live for himself. First step of his new life: marry his girlfriend. But an unwelcome surprise derails his proposal, and the future he’s longed for slips from his grasp. When the zombie apocalypse strikes, Imogen and Mike are trapped inside the zoo. If Imogen wants to protect her lynxes, she’ll have to adapt. If Mike wants to find his family, he needs to survive. Together, they must find a way out of the zoo—before it becomes as deadly as the ravenous hordes beyond its fence. Steel City Apocalypse is a sister series of The Undead Age zombie apocalypse adventure. If you like Jonathan Maberry (Rot & Ruin), Mira Grant (Feed, Parasite), and Mark Tufo (Zombie Fallout), you'll devour this gritty adventure.
