DEADLINE is here!

Shaun Mason is a man without a mission. Not even running the news organization he built with his sister has the same urgency as it used to. Playing with dead things just doesn’t seem as fun when you’ve lost as much as he has.

But when a CDC researcher fakes her own death and appears on his doorstep with a ravenous pack of zombies in tow, Shaun has a newfound interest in life. Because she brings news-he may have put down the monster who attacked them, but the conspiracy is far from dead.

Now, Shaun hits the road to find what truth can be found at the end of a shotgun.

About Feed

The year was 2014. We had cured cancer. We had beat the common cold. But in doing so we created something new, something terrible that no one could stop. The infection spread, virus blocks taking over bodies and minds with one, unstoppable command: FEED.

NOW, twenty years after the Rising, Georgia and Shaun Mason are on the trail of the biggest story of their lives-the dark conspiracy behind the infected. The truth will out, even if it kills them.

“It’s a novel with as much brains as heart, and both are filling and delicious.”
— A.V. Club
“A cool fusion of campy post-apocalyptic zombie horror (George Romero is referred to as “one of the accidental saviors of the human race”) and highly intelligent political thriller a la Richard Condon’s The Manchurian Candidate, FEED—the first installment of Grant’s Newsflesh trilogy—is a surprisingly well-constructed and deeply themed novel. ”
— Explorations: The BN SciFi and Fantasy Blog
“Mira Grant’s novel FEED starts out innocently enough but morphs into a complex, amazingly intelligent, engaging story that kept me reading late into the night a few nights. This is not your average zombie story and easily in the top three books I’ve read so far in 2010.”
—Blogcritics.org
“Gripping, thrilling, and brutal… a masterpiece of suspense with engaging, appealing characters.”
—Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)
“Feed is intelligent and intense, a thinking-person’s post-apocalyptic zombie thriller set in a fully-realized future that is both fascinating and horrifying to behold.”
—John Joseph Adams, editor of the bestselling anthologies The Living Dead and Wastelands

About the Author

Mira Grant Mira Grant has been warning people about the inevitable zombie apocalypse for years, and is relieved that they’re finally starting to listen, as she wasn’t looking forward to fighting off the undead menace on her own. A fan of horror movies and horrible diseases, she lives in Northern California, where she shares a crumbling farmhouse with an assortment of cats, unusual weapons, comic books, and research materials for the days to come (IE, “horror movies and books about horrible diseases.”) When not writing, she splits her time between travel, auditing college virology courses, and watching more horror movies than is strictly good for you. Favorite vacation spots include Seattle, London, and a large haunted corn maze just outside of Huntsville, Alabama. In her spare time, Mira masquerades as Seanan McGuire, an urban fantasy writer and author of the October Daye books (Rosemary and Rue, A Local Habitation, An Artificial Night). Her short fiction has appeared in The Living Dead 2, Grants Pass, and The Edge of Propinquity. She’s working on several other books, just to make sure she never runs out of things to edit.
