After 99% of the population of the planet is killed in less than 24 hours, for the very few who have managed to stay alive, things are about to get much worse. Animated by phase two of some unknown contagion, the dead begin to rise. At first slow, blind, dumb and lumbering, quickly the bodies regain their most basic senses and abilities... sight, hearing, locomotion... As well as the instinct toward aggression and violence. Held back only by the restraints of their rapidly decomposing flesh, the dead seem to have only one single goal - to lumber forth and destroy the sole remaining attraction in the silent, lifeless world: those who have survived the plague, who now find themselves outnumbered 1,000,000 to 1... \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile the first \u003ci\u003eAutumn \u003c\/i\u003enovel focused on those who escaped the city, \u003ci\u003eAutumn: The City \u003c\/i\u003efocuses on those who didn't. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWithout ever using the 'Z' word, the \u003ci\u003eAutumn\u003c\/i\u003e series offers a new perspective on the traditional zombie story. There's no flesh eating, no fast-moving corpses, no gore for gore's sake. Combining the atmosphere and tone of George Romero's classic living dead films with the attitude and awareness of 28 Days (and Weeks) later, this horrifying and suspenseful novel is filled with relentless cold, dark fear. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDavid Moody\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eHater\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDog Blood\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eAutumn\u003c\/i\u003e. He grew up in Birmingham, England, on a diet of horror movies and post-apocalyptic fiction. He started his career working at a bank, but then decided to write the kind of fiction he loved. His first novel, \u003ci\u003eStraight to You\u003c\/i\u003e, had what Moody calls microscopic sales, and so when he wrote Autumn, he decided to publish it online. The book became a sensation and has been downloaded by half a million readers. He started his own publishing company, Infected Books. He lives in Britain with his wife and a houseful of daughters, which may explain his preoccupation with Armageddon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 336\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.86 x 8.26 x 5.53 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 01, 2011\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52519579746611,"sku":"9780312570002","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/TnJMRGRqcCtwZ0RVaHVQNmM4UWcwQT09.webp?v=1760503952","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/autumn-the-city-the-city-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
