Rolling Hunger

“A fast read filled with action, detail, intrigue, and zombies. Don’t let the name fool you: the Yard Gnomes are as serious as a zombie attack in the dark.”

Five weeks after the end of Payload the newly-formed YGAT Corporation (Slogan: you want it, y’gat it) is in the field salvaging goods, battling the infected, and rescuing the living. The surviving Gnomes and a new crop of recruits find themselves as test subjects for the DSR’s new deployment concept, on the trail of a FASA VIP, and the targets of terrorists and zombies alike. Dyson’s fiancé is stranded halfway across the country, Addison must cope with radical changes in his life-long struggle, Chip must confront the fact that reputation demands performance, Brick meets his hero, and Bear is discovering there is more to the world than he ever imagined.

FASA has not forgotten them, Doctor Davenport especially, and the world crisis has only gotten worse. The zombies refuse to perform consistently, weapons and equipment are a constant concern, and nothing seems to work out the way our heroes intend.

Dealing with leftovers from the Cold War, murderous office politics, annoying allies, capable enemies, protesters, and reality TV crews, the new Yard Gnomes must fight their way across half of North America with only half a plan and a great deal of heart.
