Superheroes vs Zombies

Ex-Heroes

A spectacular, genre-mashing adventure series of superheroes vs. zombies.

Well, if you’re not reading Peter Clines’s books, you should be...

Zombies are awesome. Superheroes are awesome. Mash them together and you’ve got awesomeness squared

Zombies and superheroes are two great tastes that have never quite gone well together... until now.

I loved this pop culture-infused tale of shamed superheroes struggling to survive a zombie apocalypse in the ruins of Hollywood. It's The Avengers meets The Walking Dead with a large order of epic served on the side.

Ernest Cline, bestselling author of Ready Player One

Creative zombie story, with in-depth characters, and filled with humor, action, and gruesome fight scenes, Ex-Heroes is a novel that will take you on wild and heart-warming ride.

Peter Clines is the author of Ex-Heroes, Ex-Patriots, The Eerie Adventures of the Lycanthrope Robinson Cruesoe, and numerous pieces of short fiction. 
 
After working in the film and television industry for almost fifteen years, he currently writes articles and reviews for Creative Screenwriting Magazine, where he has interviewed dozens of Hollywood’s biggest screenwriters and upcoming stars.
