About the author

Stephen Hernández was born in 1960, in Bromley, England, (the only characteristics he shares with H.G. Wells and David Bowie but always finds it worth mentioning anyway as a point of interest), but spent a lot of his childhood in Venezuela. He has lived and worked in South America for a large part of his life. At one time he ran a nightclub in one of the most dangerous cities in Venezuela; after surviving cancer, he concluded that surviving a terminal illness was far less dangerous than running a nightclub in Venezuela.
He works as a translator and interpreter of Spanish with a specialization in medicine. He now divides his time between England, Italy and South America. When he is not working he likes to write.

A fun read for a zombie book.

Not your normal zombie book. Turns out that people volunteer to be made into zombie servants, but through this romp of a story we realise why that may not actually be a good idea. Read it for a fun take on zombies. You’ll be happy you did as I found it a fairly quick read.
