Stealth. Gorgon. Regenerator. Cerberus. Zzzap. The Mighty Dragon. They
were heroes. Vigilantes. Crusaders for justice, using their superhuman
abilities to make Los Angeles a better place.
Then the plague of living death spread around the globe. Despite the
best efforts of the superheroes, the police, and the military, the
hungry corpses rose up and overwhelmed the country. The population was
decimated, heroes fell, and the city of angels was left a desolate
zombie wasteland like so many others.
Now, a year later, the Mighty Dragon and his companions must overcome
their differences and recover from their own scars to protect the
thousands of survivors sheltered in their film studio-turned-fortress,
the Mount. The heroes lead teams out to scavenge supplies, keep the
peace within the walls of their home, and try to be the symbols the
survivors so desperately need.
For while the ex-humans walk the streets night and day, they are not the
only threat left in the world, and the people of the Mount are not the
only survivors left in Los Angeles. Across the city, another group has
grown and gained power.
And they are not heroes.
"Will have you gripping the book and reading late into the night, when
you know no heroes will save you." --Mur Lafferty, author of Playing
For Keeps
