Lori Lopez is one of the most talented new authors I've read in the last decade.
Lori's writing is flawless. She's the first self-published author I've seen whose work isn't riddled with grammatical errors. Thank you for that, Ms. Lopez!
This story is twisted, disturbing, horrifying and yet sensitive with an innocent overall feel. Told from the perspective of a 12 year old boy, the tale manages to give readers the gore we crave while maintaining a charming naivete.

This is a zombie tale with a difference. Zombies are about but treated more like the homeless. A group of kids try to 'tame' them by feeding them cadavers brains, so they won't need to go hunting. Then one of the boys mother's boyfriend gets bitten. Now they have a race against time before he turns and bites the boys mother.
This is an interesting take on the zombie genre. Zombies have become the norm but are still more or less shunned by society, but there is a group of boys who 'sympathise' wit...more

Not having read anything written by Lori R. Lopez before, I started reading with the notion I would get through a little bit of her story and get back to it another time but found that I was unable to stop until I reached the end. Lori's story is exceptional! Her writing is superior, better than most of today's well known author's and of equal caliber as writer's like Stephen King and John Grisham. With a writing style that is unique and masterful, her descriptive writing is flawless. Lori capti...more
Both sad, funny and horrific this little tale packs a potent punch.
From visions of Zombie Elvis hunters to a strange,horrifying future... but at least chocolate remains a priority!
Lori has such a blunt way of stating the horrors that you need to read the sentence twice to make sure you read it correctly, then the real horror hits you... not in the gore-fest but the possible truth.
again, Lori, manages to astound me with little phrases that no American should know! and excites me with a new descri...more

This was my first Lori Lopez read and it will definately not be my last! Lori does a great job with her characters and "showing" me her scenes. I loved the group of "geeks" who were out to save their part of the world from the all to common, zombie invasion. A short story, but very well written and kept my attention to the very last word! Highly recommended!
The society has seemingly learned to deal with the zombie infestation. And Lori Lopez has used her sense of wordplay and wit to bring us into this brave new world. A band of misfit teens who have taken it upon themselves to protect the ambling dead. Does this matter when a loved one is threatened? Find out Lori's answer and hold on to your poking stick!

Lori R. Lopez is a most unequivocally peculiar author, quite unlike any you are apt to encounter — and if you do, it is bound to be an imposter — because her heart beats to its own irregular rhythm. The “pulse of Originality” flows through her veins, whether writing Fiction or Nonfiction, Verse or Prose. She is never dull. She’s just a little unsane.
