Biographie:
David Moody first released Hater in 2006, and without an agent, sold the film rights for the novel to Mark Johnson (producer, Breaking Bad) and Guillermo Del Toro (director, The Shape of Water, Pan's Labyrinth). Moody's seminal zombie novel Autumn was made into a movie starring Dexter Fletcher and David Carradine. He has an unhealthy fascination with the end of the world and likes to write books about ordinary folks going through absolute hell. The publication of a second trilogy of Hater stories cemented his reputation as a writer of suspense-laced SF/ horror, and farther out genre books of all description.

Sommaire:
A dystopian field guide to the end of the world from the author of AUTUMN and HATER. Ninety-nine per cent of the population are dead, struck down by a deadly virus.
