What if the zombie apocalypse was a cog in the machine, one part of a plan far larger than simply wiping out the human race?
The flower seller sets up his stall on Embankment every day. Every day, he will serve only one customer. That person will be on the edge, teetering between heaven and hell, and it is up to him to steer them in the right direction.
But this week, it will be different. Because this week, someone is screwing with the flower seller. While he struggles to figure out who it is, and why they are doing it, something far bigger is occurring, something that will change the world forever.
A plague is about to strike mankind that will reduce them to mindless zombies, bent on nothing more than the regular consumption of flesh. The flower seller is charged with the task of saving humanity, a task he neither wants, nor cares about.
Without him, mankind is doomed. With him, things might just be worse.
But who is the flower seller? Why does he try to save the subjects? And how the hell is he going to save the world?
"I say this to let everyone reading this know that I'm not a zombie fanatic, but I adored Thirteen Roses Book One: Before: An Apocalyptic Zombie Fable." - Goodreads reviewer
"Sometimes humorous, often quirky, and at times just downright gruesome, this is a zombie fable I'd recommend to anyone looking for something just a little different." - Goodreads reviewer
"All in all a very enjoyable book, one which I would recommend to zombie lovers, fantasy readers or just about anybody who wants to read an exciting book from an author who is really writing some quality books." - Amazon reviewer
"This was definitely an interesting take on a zombie apocalypse. The Walking Dead if it were written by Neil Gaiman" - Goodreads reviewer
