Day Zero: Gaunt Man

My name is John. The ghosts of those I failed to protect haunt me. The Gaunt Man,a new persistent hallucination, claws at the cracks of my sanity. I must keep ahead of all of these phantoms. I need to get home, even if it means facing a road full of rotting walkers.People on the road have chosen to follow me. Can they count on me for their survival or will the knights of a strange new kingdom tear us apart?Will they be lost to me? Will I be lost to them?Or will I simply descend into madness and be left as just another of the undead.
Jay Bonansinga, New York Times bestselling author of ROBERT KIRKMAN'S THE WALKING DEAD: DESCENT says of the first Day Zero book of the series...DAY ZERO by Charles Ingersoll gets under the reader's skin quicker than a walker bite! Authentic, terse, economical, surgically precise, the book is a barn-burner that reads like a cross between Tom Clancy and the Marquis de Sade!

The love of zombies was in my blood immediately after watching George Romero's Night of the Living Dead at a far too young and inappropriate age. That feeling never faded, festering for forty years before that fever finally broke and beckoned me to write my own "Great American Zombie Novel". One story became a second. Two stories became an ongoing series.
I love comic cons, cosplay, movies and television, guns, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and the supernatural. I currently reside in what the South Carolina locals call the Upstate with the two real loves of my life, my very own real-life Jude (Judy) and a certain fur baby canine named Holly-both straight off the pages of Day Zero universe.
A special thank you to my partner in crime, and to everyone who chooses to support my work to ensure that my zombie universe doesn't die a horrible death.
