A family’s fight through a collapsing world

An ancient tomb’s excavation, broadcast live, precedes a deadly infection that spreads around the globe. In Florida, three adopted teenagers and their parents first watch events unfold on the news, then face the crisis at home. The opening book in the Crawlerz series brings its survival-horror premise into a family setting, where food, water, and ammunition become urgent concerns as society breaks down. Its setup links large-scale catastrophe with the pressures of protecting one another, placing loyalty and sacrifice alongside the practical struggle to stay alive.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in zombie fiction.
  • Readers who enjoy post-apocalyptic survival stories centered on a family.
  • Fans of survival horror involving infection and social collapse.

Book overview

Are you ready for the end?

When an ancient tomb is unearthed live on TV, the world watches in fascination... until horror escapes the desert sands. A deadly infection spreads rapidly across the globe, turning ordinary people into violent, cannibalistic predators.

In Florida, three adopted teens and their parents witness the chaos unfold on the news-and soon it's at their own front door. As society crumbles, survival becomes brutal, and the only thing worse than running out of food and water is running out of ammunition.

Join a tight-knit family of outcasts as they battle their way through a reality where might makes right, humanity is a memory, and staying alive demands more than strength... it demands loyalty, sacrifice, and a will to fight for each other against impossible odds.

Fans ofAdrian's Undead Diary by Chris Philbrook, Zombie Fallout by Mark Tufo, and Slow Burn by Bobby Adair will devour this action-packed survival horror saga. Readers who enjoy the gritty realism of The Remaining by D.J. Molles, the family-first grit of The Walking Dead, or the heart-pounding pace of Nicholas Ryan's Ground Zero will find Crawlerz impossible to put down.

If you crave fast-paced zombie thrillers, post-apocalyptic chaos, relentless survival, and ragtag heroes fighting for family, this series is your next obsession.
