With an all-new zombie story by New York Times bestselling author Jonathan Maberry
Death comes for us all. But for some, it doesn't stay. Mythology and lore are full of undead creatures, and each one has a story to tell-of their life, their death, or their afterlife.
From a haunting melody that leads a ghost to her killer, to a piano that provides salvation during a zombie apocalypse, to a song that grants passage back from death, Requiem: Tales of the Undead offers a chilling chorus of monstrous melodies and ghostly harmonies.
These nineteen imaginative stories feature a wide variety of the undead, each woven with a distinct musical element that explores the connection between life, death, and the supernatural. A vampire working in law enforcement learns that The driver picks the music. A mummy trapped in a corporate cubicle struggles to break free and pursue his own song. Death takes piano lessons. And when a special song is played on a specific gramophone, the dead are allowed to answer three final questions.
These aren't just stories about the undead. They're about what we remember, what we mourn, and the songs that stay with us-long after the last breath fades.
So, listen closely. The dead have stories to tell. And they're set to music.
All profits from Requiem: Tales of the Undead support the various scholarship and endowment funds for Superstars Writing Seminars.
