The Dead Don't Die - Tapa blanda

When Mike Kerns and his girlfriend Kellyn take his Autism Specific Class on a day trip to the country, things quickly transform into a day--and then months--of hell. At first Mike witnesses what appear to be strange people from the backwoods attacking a young woman. As he attempts to get involved and help, he realizes that this is no ordinary attack, and that these people are not actually people at all. They’re zombies--zombies that don’t stop with a bullet to the head, zombies that cannot be killed. Now Mike and his class are fighting for their lives as they come to terms with the fact that the world as they know it is forever changed. Mike and his class find shelter and supplies at an abandoned school. With the help of Kellyn and a classroom aide they set up the school as a makeshift community so that his students with Autism can have some semblance of structure. Juggling multiple behaviors for each student, multiple personalities and a lack of medication to keep things on an even keel, Mike and his group suddenly have to contend with a group of bloodthirsty zombie hunters. These strangers offer protection but it comes at a price... they want Mike’s students and the benefit that Autism offers those not yet changed onto zombies. The Dead Don’t Die offers a completely new take on the zombie genre while sticking true to everything readers love about the walking dead.
