‘As well as being an effective horror series then, Blood Crazy is a highly creative and thought-provoking look at a post-apocalyptic situation that is akin to a viral disaster.’ – Noel Megahey, To The Last Page


NICK ATEN IS BACK!
AND HIS STORY CONTINUES –
IN A WORLD FULL OF VIOLENCE,
DANGER, AND SUDDEN DEATH.


Nick Aten meets a group of fellow survivors. They prepare to return to his settlement, but what happens next changes everything.

Nick finds himself on a ship with new friends – and with old enemies. To avoid being overrun by Creosotes, Nick cuts the mooring lines and the ship drifts downstream. Through a shattered land that is now the domain of human bones, and cities lying in ruin.

Nick searches for a car that still works, which will allow him to return to Sarah. When he explores a ghost town, he doesn’t find the vehicle he needs, but he does find certain individuals who will force him to reassess his understanding of what the Creosotes are… and what transformation he might face in his own life.

Once again, murderous adults are getting closer. This time they just might be far more dangerous than he could have ever believed.

And not only the adults are dangerous. Not every young person is automatically an ally.
And, soon, it will be time to Carry the Can again. A game that is far from fun…and so often lethally explosive.

‘Blood Crazy is one of my favourite books, and I was leery of a sequel. Fortunately I was wrong […] I easily fell back into the Blood Crazy world. [��] The book continues rolling and never loses momentum. I read this over one weekend. Simon Clark remains one of the best, and I highly recommend this book and eagerly await the next one.’ – Regina Garza Mitchell, author of
Shadow of the Vulture

‘Blood Crazy is a seminal work that transcends genre and provides an original, fresh, and chilling take on the postapocalyptic theme. A compulsive page-turner and required reading. One of my all-time favourites!’ – Brian Keene, author of
The Rising and Island of the Dead

NOTHING HAS CHANGED.
THE WORLD IS STILL A DANGEROUS PLACE.
SO…GET THIS MESSAGE INTO YOUR HEAD.
YOU, TOO, HAVE A MONSTER TO KILL.
AND THIS BOOK JUST MIGHT SAVE YOUR LIFE.
