Looking for some fresh reading material for your Kindle or iPad bookshelf? How about thumbing through Dan Thomas’ zombie horror novella Dark Highway about a hapless young salesman who is zombified by listening to sales motivation tapes?
Originally published a while back as a trade paperback by Black Death Books, Dark Highway is now being reissued as an eBook with some spiffy new cover art.
Synopsis:
Dead End! Fueled by high hopes and the words of motivational speaker Skip Forney, traveling salesman Tom Turley takes a road trip into Wyoming to close a deal that will salvage his self-respect and save his cheesy, low-dog job – and winds up taking a wrong turn into hell! After a bloody encounter with serial killer swingers, Tom wakes up from a dirt nap with a continually decomposing body, the entrepreneurial spirit, a craving for human flesh – and a taste for revenge. But what’s a zombie to do with all eternity on his side? Re-inventing himself as a merger maniac with fangs, Tom becomes the King of Wall Street and proves that even death can’t stop a man from staking his claim (through the hearts of his clients) or greasing the wheels of the corporate machine (with blood).
Dark Highway is a lurid, humorous tale of zombie perseverance, hostile takeovers and world conquest and invites you to take a horrifying, B-movie ride into the underbelly of one man’s demonized soul.
