Porter Wright is a family man. Everything is going right for him. Career, loving wife, kids who mostly sleep through the night.
Zombies or vampires or hybrids or whatever kill his family. They're dumb undead monsters, mostly. Bullets will take them down, and Porter happens to have a few bullets.
Zombies are everywhere. Organized undead slaying was never on his agenda. Not only is the prospect of becoming a member of the mealy mouthed horde as unappetizing as human flesh, but with a world in chaos, he must take up arms to fend off the tides.
Get ready to dive into this action packed, knee slapper of a zombie story. The content of this book may be inappropriate for people who are allergic to brains and might cause spontaneous combustion. You have been warned.
I've known Geoffrey for many years. He is a gifted, sometimes evil, gamer, and has been since youth. He kicked butt in Axis&Allies and Titan I've heard.
His dad wrote software for the military, so it made sense for Geoffrey to get me into it. His first piece of software? A Chemical Weapons Attack Simulator for the USAF. Since then, he's built websites professionally and browser-based multiplayer kingdom games.
That history perhaps explains the action-adventure war focus of much of Geoffrey's writing. In 2003, Juxta, Magi was his first attempt at epic fantasy. The muse demanded a sci-fi war book, so he wrote R.A.E.C.E. Genesis.
Often a strong central character is introduced that must learn and make friends to meet an urgent challenge. Growth, determination, loyalty are common themes set against a fantasy, future or apocalyptic dystopia. The novels are all fast paced and include wonderful dry and flip humor.
Geoffrey is thankful for writing instructors Ed Davis and Tim Waggoner at Sinclair Community College. For five years, he ran an eZine, Untied Shoelaces of the Mind. He keeps a secret box stashed away with a number of print magazines he's in.
Geoffrey does more gardening now. Sunshine is his medicine. He wants a competitive yard. His Kung Pao chicken recipe is perfect in a scorch the earth way. He grows fresh legumes.
I know the Muse still has plans for Geoffrey.

5.0 out of 5 stars World Builder Par Excellence, December 11, 2014 This review is from: Zombie Flick (Paperback)
Geoff Porter is a world builder par excellence. Zombie Flick is a giant shambling beast of a book that deserves attention, now. I found the dialogue to be snappy and the action fast-paced and exciting to read through-out. One thing that struck me with Zombie Flick as opposed to all the other countless zombie books on the market at the moment, is Mr Porter's mischievous sense of humor that permeates this book and contributes to both the enjoyment and fun nature of this read and, also, to the character interactions and events as they occur in the story. I love gaming and to me this book is like participating in a full-noise multiplayer game where you, the reader, directly becomes involved in the action - quite unnerving at times (in a good way) in an almost virtual-reality sense. Grab a copy now and read it. Original, fun, and at times scary - there's a surprise on every page waiting to delight new readers.I will definitely be checking out Mr Porter's other books.
