A great review for my story "Dreams of a Dead Man" which appeared in Zombies Gone Wild! (an anthology). Posted by Joshua Skye (DarkMedia.com):
"Shaun Meeks’s “Dreams of a Dead Man” follows the melancholy days of a dutiful husband pining away for the life he once had and what perhaps may be. He’s dead now, you see, a member of a maligned minority in the aftermath of a misunderstood zombie-uprising. The living and the dead have been forced to integrate and zombies have become the bane of society, the object of open ridicule and prejudice. It’s the ultimate post-modern parable and what a fascinatingly profound work it is. Even with its blatant social commentary and media criticism, “Dreams of a Dead Man” is deceptively simple and could easily be taken purely at face value. It is, however, captivatingly insightful. The author places his protagonist repeatedly on a bus, the allegory pointed and appropriate but perhaps lost to the casual reader. The story addresses bullying and chauvinism but also the self-deprecating paranoia born of the ‘what if they were right?’ mentality. Within the context of an alternate take on the undead, the dream of the oppressed to rise up and claim their rightful equality by any means necessary is cleverly presented in this stand-out story."
