Zombies, Bath Salts in Diaries

Zombies aren’t just an American phenomenon. Two young ladies, Alisse Lee Goldenberg and An Tran, have put together what they call “An epic Canadian zombie novel told entirely through diary entries.” That is their new book Bath Salts: A Zombie Novel.

And these two seem obsessed with Zombies, take a look at their facebook page and you see photos of World War Z author Max Brooks, Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead, zombie tattoos and links to George A Romero’s Night Of The Living Dead Live.

This is how An pitches the book to prospective readers:

Do you remember the drug, Bath Salts? That incident where the one guy ate the other guy’s face?

It was all a government conspiracy. The government made up the drug to cover up zombie outbreask. Two women realize what’s happening and flee to Nunavut to ride out the outbreak. But what starts happening, and what they don’t realize, is that they’re moving apart in two very different paths.
