Chronicler of the Undead
by Mainak Dhar
When there were still people around to talk to, I would introduce myself as a drinker with a writing problem. It sounded witty at the time, and certainly got a smile once in a while from the ladies. None of that matters now. There are no people left to read my books, and nobody left to listen to my attempts at wit.
Now it’s just me, sitting in my house on the hill, watching the undead rampage through what we humans once called our world. I sometimes wonder why I still live when those much younger, stronger, smarter and fitter than me perished. Maybe it’s just dumb luck. But maybe I am being left alive for a purpose. Nobody may have cared much for my novel, but maybe this is what I was meant to write. Maybe this is what I was meant to be.
The chronicler of the undead.
This is my story.
One Reviewer Notes
“I found about this author on Amazon while browsing Amazon. At this point I own on my kindle every single one of his books. During my one year tour out here in Afghanistan I get bored a lot. Things are not as exciting as if this was Zombiestan (another one of his books)As all this author’s books, you always get to know the character really well and there is some comedy. I was not dissapointed. I am really happy he wrote another great book!” – Amazon Reviewer, 5 Stars
