Deceased High - Pike, Matt J

. .

Résumé :
Discover where the international award-winning series all began. I'm not Elizabeth anymore. That was my scared name. I'm B E A T H - like death, but a better option. Welcome to the Zombie RiZing, where it's Beath and her band of unlikely survivors versus the end of the entire world. Gulp. Since dark magic first unleashed its evil across the land, society has fallen apart. Food's running low, danger's running high and other survivors are just as nasty as the zombies looking for someone - err something - to eat. But if Beath and her friends think things are bad already, they'd better strap themselves in for the real horror ride about to unfold! Fortunately, the same magic forces that turned the mortal realm into monster central are charging Beath and her friends with their own supernatural powers to fight back. The future of everything's at stake Beath and her crew from Deceased High (formerly East High), are right in the middle of it. Zombies, monsters, magic, mayhem, fast-paced action, colossal adventure and sharp dialogue - it's a battle for the ages in this fantasy, horror, comedy epic. Be a survivor! Quotes Exciting and pacey. An excellent start to a set of horror/adventure books. This story was brill. I liked everything about it. FIVE STARS - Wishing Shelf Book Award Judges An absolute metric ton of fast paced action and punchy dialogue. Read it Daddy. Epic, entertaining, creative, action-packed, humorous.

Biographie:
Like the legendary R M Williams, Matt was born in Jamestown in rural South Australia. But that's where the remarkable similarities between the two end. While Reginald went from bushman to world-renowned millionaire outback clothing designer, Matt is a complete dag who was lured by the city lights of Adelaide. Kindergarten in the big smoke was a culture shock, but it was here he first discovered his love of storytelling.

In high school that love found an outlet in a series of completely unflattering cartoons about fellow students and teachers alike. He survived long enough to turn his art into a successful career in multimedia design but, like a zombified leech, the lure of the written word gnawed at him, forcing him to pen his first novel, the award-winning sci-fi comedy epic Kings of the World. It was followed the next year by Amazon Australia dystopian sci-fi best-seller Apocalypse: Diary of a Survivor.

Matt donates part proceeds of each book sold to find a cure for Rett Syndrome, a neurological condition that affects the youngest of his three children, Abby. As a gorgeous Rett angel, Abby cannot walk, talk or use her hands in a meaningful way. So not only is each book purchase a ticket to fantastically rounded, character-driven, hilarious and poignant sci-fi awesomeness, it also wraps you in a warm feeling of knowing you've made a difference to people who deserve your help the most. Like the zombified leech, it's a no-brainer.
