‘You have the right to remain silent,’ the big cop said in his robot’s voice. ‘If you do not choose to remain silent, anything you say may be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. I’m going to kill you. If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Do you understand your rights as I have explained them to you?’

“Leaves that rustled, twigs that scraped and rattled. But the thin shapes weren't falling, they were scurrying head first down the tree-trunks at a speed that seemed to leave time behind. Some of them had no shape they could have lived with, and some might never have had any skin. She saw their shriveled eyes glimmer eagerly and their toothless mouths gape with an identical infantile hunger. Their combined weight bowed the lowest branches while they extended arms like withered sticks to snatch the child. ("With The Angels")”

Just a quick reminder that my debut horror novel Hyenas is available free on Kindle for the next five days.It's got sort of zombies in it.
Kirkus Reviews were very kind: "Sellars evokes both classic literature and classic horror in this post-apocalyptic debut novel...genuinely frightening... exhilarating... and a stirring addition to the zombie canon."
Warning: has been known to make grown men cry.
