Nightmare of
the Dead
By Vincenzo
Bilof
Neasa
awakens on a train, with her memory gone. She and a fellow traveler are
attacked by savage flesh eating monsters after a green mist engulfs the inside
of the train. Neasa discovers that she is a feared outlaw that has been
responsible for the dead and destruction of many men.
As her
memory starts to slowly return she learns that she is part of a secret order,
and has been trained from birth to be dangerous and ruthless killers. This
organization wants her back so they can use her as their most lethal weapon.
All around
her the Civil War is raging, while Neasa is changed by the woman she loves.
This romance is the ultimate taboo of this era, because not only is her love a
woman, she is also black. They ride side by side in search of Neasa's brother.
The brother is the responsible for Neasa's loss of memory and he is also the one
who created the flesh eating monsters. He is a mad scientist and is planning to
use his zombies to guarantee that his side wins the war. Neasa and her lover
want to kill him. The kicker is Neasa’s brother is also looking for her. Neasa
is not just a ruthless outlaw, but she is also immune to the gas he uses to
turn people into zombies.
This book is
a great read. It is very entertaining with an air of suspense that keeps you
reading. I really enjoyed it. I love zombies and the Civil War backdrop gives
it a different .perspective. Plus Neasa is one tough bitch and really kicks
ass. There is so much more to this book, but I don’t want to give to much away
Vincenzo
Bilof is a major talent. He writes of horror and gore, he does it elegantly with
the words of a poet. I have said this about him before, but he is the
Shakespeare of gore. I love reading his books. He paints a picture with his
stories that is unreachable by most writers. He has moved up on my list of
favorites with each of his books that I read. I am really anxious the read more
of his stuff. Great job Vincenzo! I just bought GRAVITY
COMICS MASSACRE and
can’t wait to start reading it.
