Beyond the fence lies the Rot and Ruin, where the dead don’t rest and the living learn what they’re made of.
In a zombie-ravaged America, fifteen-year-old Benny Imura must choose a job or lose his rations. Reluctantly, he apprentices to his older brother Tom, a quiet man who kills the undead with compassion instead of cruelty. What begins as a boring chore soon becomes a brutal education in survival, honor, and grief.
As Benny ventures deeper into the ruins, he discovers that monsters wear human faces and that heroism is far more complicated than killing the dead.
Jonathan Maberry’s Rot & Ruin is a gripping coming-of-age story set in a world where the line between humanity and horror has all but vanished.
