Who is the Reverend? Dead New World’s villain…
“Nobody knew much about the Reverend
except what everybody did know—somehow, he had the ability to control the dead
and, when the zombie outbreak began, he became the leader of a powerful cult hell-bent on converting every man, woman and child into a
walking corpse. The Reverend preached that it was “God’s will.” He
believed the zombie plague was the Lord’s new creation. That humanity was
obsolete. He’d converted untold numbers to his cause. His Horsemen caused
trouble up and down the East Coast, but nobody had seen the man himself in
years. Guess this was his comeback.” — Holt
Who is the Reverend and his army of Horsemen? Some say he’s a prophet. Others, a terrorist. Rumor had it he was an actual reverend before the Tribulation. His strange grip over the zombies made him a force to be reckoned with. If the United States still had a Ten Most Wanted list, he’d take up numbers one through four. There is no greater threat to the restoration of the United States than the Reverend. If his plans to remake the world according to “God’s will,” are successful, what little remains of society will be destroyed, and humanity along with it.
He must be stopped at all costs.
Blurb:
In the end, will there be anything left to live for in this dead new world?
Ryan uses a healthy dose of real life and imagination to come up with stories, and typically spends his time, reading, writing, and watching movies or TV shows...anything involving a good story. Drop him a line on Twitter @J_Ryan.

Dead New World by Ryan Hill
Zombies aren’t mindless anymore.
They follow orders. And
if Holt and Ambrose want to kill some undead, they’ll do the same. But when a
routine mission goes horribly wrong, the best friends’ lives are flayed to the
bone.
Now there’s only one
light in the darkness of Holt’s life, and when she’s taken, he’ll do anything
to get her back. Even if that means defying orders and using his best friend as
a weapon. Holt and Ambrose risk all to save her, but what they discover among
the hordes threatens to remake humanity. Again.
In the end, will there be anything left to live for in this dead new world?
The Campaign:
The Kickstarter campaign is live! It’ll run
from November 14 to December 14, and we are so excited! We believe that by
using crowd-sourcing we will be able to generate buzz and interact with readers
even before the book is published. It also brings authors and readers together
so that they are both part of the publication journey. And as the publisher, we
look forward to strengthening that bond. We’ve chosen Ryan Hill’s Dead New World as our first project and
are looking forward to sharing it with you. Thank you for spreading the word.
Now let’s make beautiful zombies together!

Ryan Hill’s bio:
Ryan Hill likes to keep zombies in a safe place—his head.
If zombies ever do take over, the thought of living off canned beans is not
enticing. At all.Ryan uses a healthy dose of real life and imagination to come up with stories, and typically spends his time, reading, writing, and watching movies or TV shows...anything involving a good story. Drop him a line on Twitter @J_Ryan.
