About this ebook
Max barely made it out of Chicago alive and was looking forward to a long recovery in Iowa with his kids. Picked up by Colonel Draper he expected a quick return to his friend Bill’s home and chance to catch his breath. It is not to be, however, and he is compelled to use his abilities to go on one last mission; to find the Zombie-master, the man responsible for creating the outbreak. Pressed into service alongside his friends, Max heads out to beard the lion in his den and finish the fight once and for all.
Mark Clodi
Mark Clodi (born March 30th, 1969) is the author of many zombie apocalypse novels and short stories. At an early age Mark was hooked on fantasy and the pulp fiction of the 'Golden Age of Science Fiction'. While moving around the mid-west with his parents he continued to feed his frenzied reading by buying fiction at yard sales and utilizing the local libraries. The thought of actually becoming a writer struck him at an early age, but he never followed through on his dream until he was much older and well established in his chosen career as a computer programmer. His writing started one day while trading emails back and forth with Mike Keleman, the co-author of his first book. They started assigning chapter numbers to the emails and the rest, as they say, is history.He lives in a small town smack-dab in the middle of Iowa (U.S.A.) tinkering with story ideas, knocking back the occasional rum and pondering his life choices.

Reviews for The Zombie Chronicles 3
6 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The blurb for this series says..."The ‘Zombie Chronicles’ universe, where the zombies don’t stay mindless, shambling adversaries. Instead they grow smarter, faster and stronger as they feed on the flesh of the living."...and to that statement I would add, "And where zombie-fighting humans begin to suspect that they, too, are changing as they struggle to survive in this bleak world."Author Mark Clodi distinguished The Zombie Chronicles by coming up with the very novel idea that Romero-type zombies could learn and grow as they feed. The human survivors in the Zombie Chronicles world therefore have to content with both types of zombies as they try to survive.The first three Zombie Chronicles books center upon Max, his best friend Bill, a cop Jane Steward, and a great supporting cast of minor characters -- both human and zombie. Interesting questions are raised: Can a thinking zombie still care about humanity? Could zombie and human work together to overcome the common evil? What qualifies as humanity? There are some grammatical mistakes in the series, particularly in the first book, but for me those faded in significance as I was caught up in the unique "smart zombies" premise, the multidimensional characters (it was particularly interesting to see the world through the eyes of the smart zombies), and the action as Max and friends try to stay alive. In book three, Ascension, Max & Co. decide to take on Sentry himself.
