Last Fight of the Valkyries

Writing three books has been, without a doubt, the hardest thing I’ve ever done. I worked on my project consistently for six months, pretty much all day long during work weeks. I’m unemployed, but I take the weekends off for my sanity.

However, the response to my trilogy has been incredible. Lots of people are enjoying the first book and then going right into the second, even though I didn’t write book 1 with any real cliffhanger. I have over 250 pre-orders for book 3, and it releases Feb 14. To be honest I’m glad to finally have them all out there, because they have been my constant companions for months and I’m ready for new blood!

Zombie blood, that is!

The next book is going to be called Last Fight of the Valkyries. Set immediately after book 3, it follows Liam, Marty, and Victoria as they walk up the ramp into the city.

So what is book 4 about? Here’s some literature:

The escape is over. The race to save civilization begins.

Liam and Victoria take a deep breath in a new home after their non-stop battles of escape and rescue in the city of St. Louis. Grandma Marty, exhausted beyond words, finally reaches a place she can rest and recuperate. Cairo, Illinois is the fortified refuge they’ve been hoping for.

But Liam pledged he would document the destruction of the world. He’s inspired to write a tell-all book. It would be his way of recording for the history books who was responsible for creating the zombies and unleashing them upon mankind. To do that, he needs to go back outside the wire of safety.

Liam and Victoria head upriver to the one place they know holds clues to the zombie plague: a deep, dark pit mine. Their plans are complicated by a young woman Liam rescued on his final flight from St. Louis. She wants to accompany them on the journey north. At first she appears harmless, but as they reach the mine, and find who and what’s inside, her loyalties become more and more suspect.

Grandma, unsure of her own mental state, believes she’s seen the strange girl before. In her dreams.

Last Fight of the Valkyries is book 4 in the Sirens of the Zombie Apocalypse universe, created by E.E. Isherwood.
