      It begins with one body. A pair of medical examiners find themselves facing a dead man who won't stay dead. It spreads quickly.

On a US aircraft carrier, living sailors hide from dead ones while a fanatic preaches the gospel of a new religion of death. At a cable news station, a surviving anchor keeps broadcasting, not knowing if anyone is watching, while his undead colleagues try to devour him. In DC, an autistic federal employee charts the outbreak, preserving data for a future that may never come. Everywhere, people are targeted by both the living and the dead. We think we know how this story ends. We. Are. Wrong

      Pay the Piper
    • Es beginnt mit einem Toten, der sich plötzlich von der Bahre erhebt und zwei Pathologen angreift. Schnell breitet sich das Phänomen über das ganze Land aus: In einer Wohnwagensiedlung im Mittleren Westen müssen eine junge Schwarze und ein muslimischer Einwanderer gegen ihre toten Freunde kämpfen, die aus ihren Gräbern hervorgekrochen sind. Auf einem Flugzeugträger der US Navy verstecken sich die überlebenden Seeleute vor ihren untoten Kameraden. Ein einsamer Nachrichtensprecher sendet weiter, bis seine wiederauferstandenen Kollegen kommen, um ihn zu zerfleischen. In Washington, D.C., dokumentiert eine autistische Bundesbeamtin die Ausbrüche für eine Nachwelt, die es vielleicht nie geben wird. Im ganzen Land kämpfen die Lebenden gegen die Toten. Wir dachten, wir wüssten, wie diese Geschichte endet. Wir haben uns geirrt.

      V roce 1968 svět objevil zcela nový druh teroru, díky debutovému filmu George A. Romera Noc oživlých mrtvol. Právě zemřelí vstávali a napadali živé. Nejsou to ani upíři ani vlkodlaci. Bylo to něco nového... a děsivého. Od té doby se zombie rožšířili do všech odvětví kultury. Všechno to začalo té strašlivé noci na opuštěném statku... Antologie Noc oživlých mrtvol se vrací k této noci, kdy všechno začalo. Jonathan Maberry společně se samotným Georgem A. Romerem dali dohromady zcela nové povídky, které se všechny odehrávají během následujících 48 hodin po první noci. Přispěli tito spisovatelé: Brian Keene, Carrie Ryan, Chuck Wendig, Craig E. Engler, David J. Schow, David Wellington, Isaac Marion, Jay Bonansinga, Joe R. Lansdale, John A. Russo, John Skipp, Keith R.A. DeCandido, Max Brallier, Mike Carey, Mira Grant, Neal and Brenda Shusterman, and Ryan Brown. Plus samozřejmě Romero i Maberry! Pro každého, kdo miluje strašidelné příběhy.
