Axe 2 Grind
"5-stars. Grey West has created a world that's inventive, completely unexpected, and bursting at the seams with mayhem. Fans of THE WALKING DEAD and genre mash-ups like ABRAHAM LINCOLN VAMPIRE HUNTER will love Double Barrel." -Jeremy Robinson, Bestselling Author of SecondWorld and Threshold
IN 1876, THE WORLD WENT TO HELL.
IN 1877, FOUR SURVIVORS CLAWED THEIR WAY BACK OUT.
From the mind of author Grey West comes a groundbreaking saga that wildly re-imagines America's past. Set twelve years after the Civil War, Axe 2 Grind is the first issue in the Double Barrel series and puts readers on a collision course with history… and the undead.
Twin brothers John and James Barrel are the nation's deadliest Regulators — gunslingers with a license to kill from Abraham Lincoln. When an urgent telegraph from the President is cut off by a zombie attack on the Colorado mining town where they live, the Barrels must set out to make contact with Lincoln and hunt down the man he says caused the zombie plague.
Meanwhile, seventeen year old Violet Drake and her mute brother Sam have seen nightmares come to life before, but nothing like the evil flooding the streets of New York City. When their scientist father goes missing, the Drakes must beat a race against time to find the one man who may be able to save the world — a man known as the Wizard of Menlo Park. But first they must escape Manhattan before it's overrun by the undead.
Four survivors.
Two adrenaline laced stories.
One incredible journey that will pit them all against the world.

About the author
Grey West
8 books9 followersGREY WEST is the author and creator of the Double Barrel series of novels.
Born in [OMITTED] and raised by [CLASSIFIED], he discovered his gift for words at an early age. He eventually learned to write, which mercifully made good use of those words since he wasn't particularly gifted at speaking.
Following in the footsteps of his parents, he studied Differential History and Dubious Occultism with the world-renowned professor [CONFIDENTIAL] at [TOP SECRET], receiving three PhD's, highest honors from the faculty, and a letter from the Queen promising eventual knighthood provided he kept his oath to warn her of any imminent apocalypses-zombie, robotic, alien or otherwise.
He now lives in [VERY, VERY SECRET] with [EVEN MORE SECRET THAN THAT LAST BIT] and spends his days making stuff up for a living, enjoying fine food and drink, and warding off enemies so evil they cannot be mentioned here. He also likes the number three for obvious reasons.
