Morbid Hearts, the first novel in the Dead Hearts Novel Series, is a dark supernatural fantasy set after a worldwide "Scourge" has destroyed all known civilization, turning most of the human population into zombies. Makeshift settlements under the authority of the local military, called the Freedom Army, provide refuge for the survivors on Pike’s Peak, outside of Colorado Springs. Quasi-military teen patrols are assembled to guard the camps' perimeters from scavengers and the infected. The Fighting Tigers is one of the best scout patrols, but there are a dozen more and all want fame and glory. But when scavengers cut a hole in the fence, allowing a zombie horde to attack the camp, the militia are spread thin, leaving Cadence and the Tigers to lead the teenagers in a full-scale battle against the enemy.The five novels in the Dead Hearts series follow the seven members of the Fighting Tigers, led by Cadence, a spirited 17 year old girl, from their formative time at Colorado Springs through myriad twists and turns as the H1N1z virus changes life as we know it. The virus in the Dead Hearts Novel Series is a character in itself...it mutates even if you're already infected, and you might end up with two viruses, so you can turn into something quite different than you’d expect. The reason for this is because zombie and vampire fans all agree a zombie can’t turn a vampire into a zombie, and a vampire can’t turn a zombie into a vampire, but a virus can do anything it wants. This series is also about friendship, trust, deception, betrayal, and growing up in a world that's turned upside down. Zombies are a common enemy for teenagers from every walk of life to fight, together, because you have to work together if you want to accomplish anything. And it doesn't matter where you came from, who you were, or what you did before you came to the Peak...you get a new start in my world, a new name, and teammates, or, you end up as one more zombie just trying to find something to eat. Zombies don’t have to worry about going to school, minding their parents, graduating, finding a job, paying bills, or making beds in the morning. So maybe it’s not that bad to be a zombie, if you don’t mind the smell. This is the one series where every genre you can hope to find in one book comes together!JOIN THE HORDE AND BUY THE Hearts (on sale)Forsaken Hearts (on sale)Vengeful Hearts (coming soon)Defiant Hearts (coming soon)Immortal Hearts (coming soon)
