Synopsis: The only thing worse than being a zombie is being just human enough to know you’re turning into a zombie. Welcome to Project Z, where you’re never sure what’s worse: the living or the dead.
My Thoughts: Where most of the Rusty Fischer stories I’ve read so far have a thread of humor in them, this short story is a black as a moonless night. There isn’t much I can tell you about the story without spoiling it, and trust me: you do not want to be spoiled going into this shocking little story. If you do not enjoy horror stories; if your like a happy ending; if you’d rather not know how horrible people are – then stay away. But if you enjoy reading about how truly evil people can be, then you should enjoy this little gem of a horror story.
A very quick read about a government experiment relating to zombies. Well written and in style with the rest of what I've read by Rusty. Amazon says it's an estimated 19 pages, so I can't say much without giving everything away!
