The Z Word

By Lindsay King-Miller

Book Overview

A chaotic bisexual, her ex-girlfriend, and a messy queer found family must survive a zombie outbreak, save Pride, and expose its shocking source in this funny, bloody horror-comedy packed with romance, action, social satire, and big gay feelings.

"Sexy, scathing, delightful, and intimately devastating."--Gretchen Felker-Martin, author of Manhunt and Cuckoo

Chaotic bisexual Wendy is trying to find her place in the queer community of San Lazaro, Arizona, after a bad breakup--which is particularly difficult because her ex is hooking up with some of her friends. And when the people around them start turning into violent, terrifying mindless husks, well, that makes things harder. Especially since the infection seems to be spreading.

Now, Wendy and her friends and frenemies--drag queen Logan, silver fox Beau, sword lesbian Aurelia and her wife Sam, mysterious pizza delivery stoner Sunshine, and, oh yeah, Wendy's ex-girlfriend Leah--have to team up to stay alive, save Pride, and track the zombie outbreak to its shocking source. Hopefully without killing each other first.

The Z Word is a propulsive, funny, emotional horror debut about a found family coming together to fight corporate greed, political corruption, gay drama, and zombies.
