My story “The Skull-Faced City” is among the free samples over at the newly-launched website for the zombie anthology The Living Dead 2:
“The Skull-Faced City”
A power-mad zombie rules over a city of the dead.

This is a sequel to “The Skull-Faced Boy,” so definitely read that one first:
“The Skull-Faced Boy”
Two friends clash after coming back to life as zombies.

for someone immune to the zombie craze, i thought, excellent stories both. just as in the GGG podcast, DBK seems to find an interesting new direction to explore along a well-shambled path.
the concept of zombie vanity is great, esp. in the passage: {“That one is weak,” Park snapped. “Still enamored with the trappings of life. And so here he is, far from the Commander’s favor.”} the Park character and his inner conflict/dilemma is really compelling. dining on “his grandmother” was especially creepy, and the end was just classic.
