About the Author:

Darren Shan is the number-one bestselling author of the young adult series Cirque du Freak, The Demonata and The Saga of Larten Crepsley, as well as the stand-alone books, The Thin Executioner and Koyasan. Shan's books have sold in every continent, in thirty-one languages, and have been bestsellers worldwide. In total, they have sold over twenty-five million copies. Zom-B is the first book in his new 12-book serial about a zombie invasion, and his first with Simon & Schuster. Shan divides his time between his homes in Limerick and London.

From Booklist:

The sixth entry in the Zom-B series (with six more coming over the next 18 months!) continues the odyssey of the undead B as she tries to munch brains for good instead of evil. The return of American soldier Barnes leads to B becoming a “gladiator” for a boat full of the formerly rich and famous, who wish to enjoy some zombie-versus-zombie entertainment before they reassume control of the world. Shan introduces yet another chilling bad guy—the babyish child-killer Dan-Dan—while making sure B never quite loses her malcontent edge. Both as a publishing experiment and as a genuinely unsettling, long-form drama, this is working. Grades 9-12. --Daniel Kraus
