Bitten: After Dark

Bitten: After Dark #1

by Tristan Vick

After losing her son to the zombie outbreak, Rachael Ramirez find herself at Hector's old school taking a trip down memory lane. Finding his bag and a collection of personal items, she longs for the time before the plague, before the living nightmare began. Little does she know, a dark stalker lurks in the shadows of the old abandoned school.

This exciting new ten page short story takes place during the events of the novel BITTEN, in which a deadly outbreak of a zombie virus known as The Resurrection Virus consumes Newcastle City. Originally outlined as an early chapter of the first book, it got left on the editing room floor after the book was trimmed for length.

If you are uncertain about sinking your teeth into BITTEN, perhaps this original and affordable short will help generate a craving for more, and for the die-hard fans, whet their appetites until BITTEN 2: Land of the Rising Dead gets released sometime in the summer of 2013.

14 pages, Kindle Edition

About the author

In elementary school, Tristan Vick once wrote about an alien which came to earth and ate his all of his classmates. His teacher made him tear it up and write a *different more egalitarian story. Apparently, being the sole survivor of the alien attack wasn't egalitarian enough. Now he writes horror, post-apocalytpic, survival, sci-fi, western, erotica, thriller, romance novels and he's not afraid of mixing his genres either.

Tristan Vick is the Author of the zombie/survival/horror series BITTEN: RESURRECTION published by Winlock Press, and exciting new imprint of Permuted Press.

He is also the author of The Scarecrow & Lady Kingston: Rough Justice, also through Winlock Press, which follows the story of a magical scarecrow that joins the LAPD.

This year (2016) Tristan Vick will release three exciting science fiction novels through his self-owned publishing imprint Regolith Publictions, including Robotica: Ultra Heavy, a cyber punk novel, Exoverse: Invasion of the Draugr, a dark sci-fi horror with ancient astronaut and alien conspiracies, and Little Red Gauntlet, a steam punk fairy tale re-telling of the beloved Little Red Riding Hood fable.

Tristan Vick graduated from Montana State University with degrees in English Literature and Asian Cultural Studies. He speaks fluent Japanese and lives with his wife and kids in Japan. When he's not commuting on the train or teaching English, he spends his time reading, writing, blogging, and eating sara udon.
