Eli's Guide to Staying Alive in Monster City

By Alyssa Rucker

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.

Originally posted on Reddit's r/nosleep and largely unedited from the online series, Eli's rules and stories are now here to stay as a novel, with a few extra tidbits thrown in!

Eli always thought a list of rules to survive some insane situation like a zombie apocalypse was a bit ridiculous. How would rules be enough to save you in a hellscape like that?

...But then his world went to shit, and he realized a list of rules might just save his life. Twelve rules, to be exact. Twelve rules to deal with all the types of monsters that have overrun his city - which has been completely cut off from the outside world by a massive, impenetrable dome. Armed with the rules, his best cat friend Mr. Bailey, and a penchant for naming the monsters after people he hated in high school (there were a lot, okay), every day is a fight to stay alive in monster city.

But maybe not all hope is lost. Sure, Eli saw his entire family die, and sure, there may be no way out...but maybe there is. And maybe he's not the last human left (he hopes not, because if he's the best humanity has to offer, we're in trouble). And as he continues to survive and delve deeper, it turns out there may be more to the dome and the monsters than he ever imagined. A lot more. Which means his rules are more important than ever, and so are his stories.

So hug your family (for Eli, because he can't, and really wishes he still could), relax, and get ready. Because Eli (and Mr. Bailey) present to you: ELI'S GUIDE TO STAYING ALIVE IN MONSTER CITY
