The Last Days of Salton Academy

AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR JENNIFER BROZEK

The Outbreak happened just over three months ago. The Salton Academy has become a rare sanctuary for those few students who remained behind over fall break while the rest of the world fell into ruins. But all is not well within these hallowed walls.

As winter approaches, cracks are revealed in the academy's foundations: someone is stealing food from the dwindling stores, another is taking advantage of a captive audience, and yet others have banded together and are thinking about mutiny, even murder. One thing's for certain -- a supply run must be made soon, or everyone will starve before winter's end.

Then there's the matter of the headmaster's son and his undead dog...

The Last Days of Salton Academy is a classic tale of horror in the spirit of Night of the Living Dead meets Lord of the Flies, featuring an ensemble cast and written by Hugo Award-nominated award-winning author, Jennifer Brozek.

"If Lord of the Flies had occurred during a zombie outbreak, it would read something like this. A bloody good tale you can really sink your teeth into." --Timothy W. Long, author of the Z-Risen series

"The Last Days of Salton Academy is a delightful character study which combined boarding school antics with the survival horror of a post-apocalypse thriller. The characters are fresh, the dynamics interesting, and the story engaging from beginning to end. It is a YA story I heartily recommend." --C.T. Phipps, author of Esoterrorism and Wraith Knight

"As much as I love all things undead, what kept me turning pages wasn't the zombie horde, but something far more horrible: the students and staff of a pretentious prep school. The Last Days of Salton Academy is compulsively readable--I devoured it in one sitting. With a cast of all-too-believable characters and a set of ever-ratcheting disasters, this novella is guaranteed to keep you up past your bedtime." --Wendy N. Wagner, author of Starspawn and Skinwalkers

"The Last Days of Salton Academy is a dark, twisted rollercoaster of a book. Jennifer Brozek knocks it out of the park." --Stephen Blackmoore, author of City of the Lost and Broken Souls

A fantastic tell of why the selfish and arrogant would never make it in a real apocalypse

Don't get attached. The Last Days of Salton Academy is a fantastic zombie narrative that goes through the fall of a human settlement. With characters hoarding food, murdering each other for personal gain or protection, and just in general not thinking things through, the survivors are going to dwindle. This book isn't long, but it is very, very good. Perfect for a cold day and a warm blanket, or waiting for an event to start at a convention (Which is when and how I read it).
