Bigger Monsters Eliza Andrews

Who would you be during the zombie apocalypse - the hunter or the hunted?Some zombie apocalypse stories are full of fighting and gore and dramatic battles and narrow escapes. If that's the kind of zombie tale you're looking for, look elsewhere, because this is not that story. This is a zombie apocalypse story about the choices we're faced with when trying to survive. Specifically, it's about Willow (just call her Will), her dysfunctional mother, and the fiancé who recently cheated on her. When the three of them stumble across a post-apocalyptic vegan hippie commune in the mountains of North Carolina, they think they've found a true utopia. (Well, except for the veganism. And all the hippies.) The community takes them in without realizing that Will and her companions are harboring a dark secret - a secret Will, her mom, and her fiancé will do almost anything to keep hidden. But when mother nature transforms their new utopia into a dystopia, Will and the community she's with face some hard choices. Ultimately, no matter what the survivors each believe about themselves, they are reminded that the only real choice you can make in a zombie apocalypse is the choice between being the hunter or the hunted. There's not a lot in between. Bigger Monsters is a little bit The Walking Dead, a little bit The L Word, and 100 percent a wild ride.
