Promo-topia Day- Claire C. Riley's Odium

It's that time again, friends. Time for another installment of "Promo-topia". This has been an exciting month of excellent books by fantastic authors and today is no exception. Today, the spotlight shines on a friend from "across the pond", Claire C. Riley and Odium, Book One of The Dead Saga.

Personally, I am a big fan of checking out an author's Amazon Page to learn a little about them. My favorite part of her bio is that she "writes characters that are realistic and kills them without mercy". Now, that's my kind of girl! You can read the entire bio here: http://www.amazon.com/Claire-C-Riley/e/B00CCCSF06/ref=ntt_athr_dp_pel_pop_1

Now, let's get to the best part....the book! Which can be purchased at: http://www.amazon.com/Odium-Dead-Saga-Claire-Riley-ebook/dp/B00FLUTJ74/?tag=theboomon-20   Here's the blurb for Odium:

It's better to die by the gun than die by the dead. Nina’s life was irrevocably changed when humanity’s dead began to rise.  Now, she lives behind the walls. The barricaded cities, erected by the government to protect the remnants of civilization, have become a brutal dictatorship- causing the inhabitants within to starve, steal and claw for survival. Life behind the walls has become as terrifying as roaming the zombie-ridden landscape beyond. Citizens trade what they can to gain food, water, and shelter. Nina has only one currency—her body and she is tired of submitting herself to the greedy hands of the self-proclaimed leaders. An opportunity to escape presents itself in the fate of a young girl named Emily-Rose. For the price of a stale piece of bread, she is set for banishment from the city, and most likely a horrific death at the hands of the deaders. Nina tells herself that it is sympathy and not self-preservation that makes her follow the young girl out of the walled metropolis, and into the overgrown world beyond. Unused to fighting the deaders, Nina tries to scrounge for her survival and against her better judgment, begins to care for Emily-Rose. However, when you have a bread-stealing liability providing your only back up, survival seems even tougher. Nina is forced to fight for their lives, and with every zombie slain, she becomes fiercer, faster – a grim reaper with her not-so-sharp butcher’s knife.Along the path to a safe-haven that might not exist, Nina and Emily-Rose meet Mikey who introduces them to a new life they could not imagine, a life above the ground. However, this new world brings new dangers, and darker shadows than she knew.  Nina finds out that the deaders aren’t the only thing to fear beyond the wall. And that fear will not be ignored, or Forgotten.
