ALICE IN ZOMBIELAND.

See how author Nickolas Cook hacks (pun intended) Lewis Carroll's original story into odds & ends! The title alone was worth posting as I only discovered this book existed yesterday. I won't read it a) because I don't know how to, and b) I can pretty much put the pieces (again with the puns! genius!) together on how this book works. The cover is rad enough for a Creep Street tee, but we'll just half to flip it some other time :). Anyhoo, if you are bored & in the mood for some undead pokes at a classic fairytail, this one's for you.



"They were indeed a queer-looking party that assembled on the bank-the birds with draggled feathers, the animals with their fur clinging close to them, and all dripping wet, cross, and uncomfortable. All of them were covered in Alice's now cold and congealed blood, which made them even tastier looking to poor hungry Alice.

When little Alice follows the Black Rat down into the gaping darkness of an open grave, she falls and falls. And soon finds herself in an undead nightmare of rotting flesh and insanity. Venturing further into this land of zombies and monsters, she encounters characters both creepy and madcap along the way. But there's something else troubling poor Alice: her skin is rotting and her hair is falling out. She's cold. And she has the haunting feeling that if she remains in Zombieland any longer, she might never leave. Can Alice escape Zombieland before the Dead Red Queen catches up to her?"
