A Zombie Novel with Heart--and a Brain--Resurrected Through New Publisher
A "thinking man's zombie novel" is revived, with new formatting, a rewritten and re-edited beginning, and an author's afterword, through Master Key Press. "Resurrection Planet Second Edition" offers readers thrills, and some deep thinking.
Dallas, TX, July 30, 2011 --(PR.com)-- New life is being pumped into a world of zombies, psychopathic tyrants, and a hero/villain who aspires to conquer an entire wasteland. "Resurrection Planet Second Edition" by Lucas Cole is being offered--resurrected--by Master Key Press. This classic military science fiction/horror novel will be available exclusively to readers of Kindle, iPad, Nook, and other digital eBook formats.
Author Lucas Cole welcomes the opportunity for this major re-do of his first novel which, he admits, was "rushed to publication." It had received praise, but also one scathing review by a reader who, Cole believes, had an appreciation for some aspect of the tale, but misunderstood--or resented, perhaps--other aspects, like the main character's manipulation of women, and the pseudo-religious aspects of the novel.
"This is a zombie tale with a brain--and plenty of heart," Cole says. "Resurrection Planet Second Edition is not your standard zombie book--and it never was meant to be. Banding together to fight off flesh-eating monsters--yes, that aspect exists in this novel, but this novel digs deeper--and unearths (pardon the puns) so much more. The questions about life after death, what constitutes evil, and when, if ever, does the end justify the means...these questions are at the heart of this rewritten and reformatted version. And at its core--it's a study of the heart--and mind--of the hero/villain--Major Ronald Crisp--and his similarities to the 'monsters' he opposes." Not the typical concerns for so-called zombie books, the author adds.
Resurrection Planet Second Edition is the first product for Master Key Press, a small digital publishing firm focusing on digital products, mainly eBooks, but possibly expanding into other areas in the future.
