🧟‍♂️ Humans Versus Zombies – A Free Gift for Substack Readers

Survival, sacrifice, and moral grey zones—my zombie fiction collection is yours, free.

Hello from Morecambe!

I've got something special for you—a FREE copy of Humans Versus Zombies, my latest collection of interconnected zombie stories.

This isn’t your usual run-and-gun apocalypse fare.

These stories focus on the people left behind.
The ones without bunkers, bug-out bags, or military training.
The ones who have to make impossible choices with no cavalry coming.

The centrepiece is Niamh’s Journey, the story of a young mother protecting her three-year-old son during the early days of the outbreak in Philadelphia. It’s connected to my upcoming series Punks Versus Zombies (launching on Kindle September 1st), showing the other side of Tommy’s desperate cross-country journey to reach them.

Alongside Niamh’s story, you’ll find four more tales set in working-class Wolverhampton—the same streets that shaped my understanding of quiet resilience and everyday heroism.

A bus driver making one final run.
A security guard risking everything to reach a stranger.
A burglar who becomes a protector.

These stories are about hope in hopeless situations.
They’re about survival, but also sacrifice.
About the moral complexity that emerges when society’s rules no longer apply.

Consider it a thank you—for reading, for sticking with stories that challenge the black-and-white narratives, and for proving there’s still a place for fiction that looks the end of the world in the eye and says: we’re not done yet.

All the best,
Jon
