Spotlight on MORTAL: SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE by Shawn Chesser

Hey, there, blogketeers!  It's June and you know what that means:



Today we have a very special guest: fellow zombie author Shawn Chesser!  First, let's get to know Shawn and then jump right into the spotlight of his latest novel, MORTAL: SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE.

About Shawn Chesser:



Shawn Chesser resides in the Pacific Northwest with his wife and two children. He studied writing at Harvard on the hill (PCC Sylvania) many years ago. Shawn is a big fan of the apocalyptic horror genre. Stephen King, Cormac McCarthy and George Romero are strong influences. When not writing, Shawn spends the rest of his time doting on his two children and doing whatever his wife says. :)

Spotlight on MORTAL



Stephen Kozeniewski:  Thanks for being with us on the blog today, Shawn.  What is your latest zombie release?

Shawn Chesser:  MORTAL: SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE.

SK:  Can you give us a quick description of it without any spoilers?

SC:  114,000 words. Approx. 456 pages.

Spoiler free synopsis-lite.

MORTAL, Book 6 in the SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE series, picks up immediately where ALLEGIANCE: SURVIVING THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE left off.

Outbreak Day 16: With an estimated ninety-nine percent of the United States’ population having already succumbed to the Omega Virus and reanimated to form roving hordes of flesh-eating monsters, two groups of survivors struggle against long odds to survive the zombie apocalypse.

SK:  Can you tell us something unique about it?

SC:  MORTAL is a military thriller set in a thoroughly devastated United States. This fast paced thriller features not only hard-charging alpha males in camouflage and body armor, but also regular citizens doing their best to survive the zombie apocalypse.

Thrown into the mix are strong female characters, a group of younger survivors, as well as a host of human baddies my readers love to hate.

SK:  Sounds great!  Thanks for stopping by!

You can follow Shawn on his website, Amazon page, Twitter, his personal Facebook page, and his Facebook author page.

Make sure to buy your own copy of MORTAL and tell all your friends about it on Goodreads
