Zombies were just the beginning. Greater horrors wait out in the night...

Eli had never really gotten along with people. Not his family, his friends, his fellow students, or his co-workers. All he ever wanted was to withdraw from the world into his music and video games. When his internet connect goes out for seemingly no reason he's annoyed, but when his power also goes out, he realizes there has to be something wrong. So he finally decides to do what he has been trying to put off for weeks: go outside.

As soon as he does, he discovers the world is not the same one he remembers. Now the world is full of monsters - the walking, flesh-eating, undead variety. Now the loner Eli is forced to run with a small group of survivors just to stay alive. But while he is busy trying to find out where he belongs in this new post-apocalyptic world, the terrors continue to grow out there in the darkness. Soon, Eli will learn that there is more to survival than staying one step ahead of the monsters. Soon, he will learn that there are more frightening things waiting for him in the darkness than zombies...

Come enjoy this horror story like no other, inspired by monster movies, video games, comic books, TV shows, and the musical stylings of horror rock bands.

When you are infected with the virus, there are four stages. 1) Your fever will shoot up and everything will become intensified on a maximum level. You'll lose grip on what's reality and what's illusion. 2) You'll start to slowly fall down the rabbit hole, forgetting the past and everything and everyone that you knew. 3) You face your imminent death. 4) You wake up with a pressing hunger for the living. It's been seven months since the pandemic hit with this virus and the world has been ravaged and left to ruins. Society has crumbled to nothing and more than three fourths of the population have been infected with the mysterious virus that took the world by storm. The virus has turned anyone infected into crazed flesh-eating freaks, with decrepit skin and red puffy eyes. The only way to kill them is by obliterating the brain. Elise Alice Gordon, Lease for short, led a simple life until the virus hit. Seven months later she is just barely scraping by. She's done what she's had to do to survive, and in that process she has created demons that haunt her every time she closes her eyes. See, it hasn't been easy trying to live in a dead world. She's lost friends, family, and everything she's ever known. The only thing she hasn't lost is her humanity and her hope. But she's afraid she's starting to. Because in this new world, there's only her, the dead, and the restless. © 2012 by Ashtyn Mane. All rights reserved.
The Hidden Lives of Monsters by Landiahazak
37 parts Complete
Anyone who has played any Monster Hunter game will have probably noticed at some point that the ways these so called "monsters" act are strangely familiar, with their behavior being more animalistic than monstrous. This is without a doubt the thing that separates this franchise from all other monster hunting games; the beasts we do battle with are little more than this world's versions of animals. Now it's no secret that we're familiar with the lives of the humans, felyns, and wyverians, as we spend a lot of time with them; however, what about the monsters? Do we really know what the lives of these fantastical animals are like? In this book, we'll be exploring the hidden lives of the monsters themselves and see the world through their eyes. We'll learn what their everyday lives are like, the challenges they must face to survive in their natural habitats, and even how they manage to more or less peacefully coexist with other creatures and civilization. So if you want to see what it's like to live as a monster, join me on this journey, and discover the hidden lives of monsters. Warning! Because nature can be very unforgiving, some of these stories may contain potentially upsetting content to some readers, with gore, violence, and mating being some of them. This book is supposed to give an accurate representation of monster lives, so despite not being present in the games for obvious reasons, the simple fact is that these less palatable things definitely do happen when nobody's looking. Finally, all pictures belong to their rightful owners.
