Zachary Zombie and the Lost Boy Quotes

“Anise screamed a perfectly pitched scream of terror that echoed up and down the coast.  Then she turned and ran away as fast as possible.

“This story is dedicated to brains: the forgotten victims in all zombie tales.     This story is not for normal children.  If you have any intention of raising a well adjusted child, this is not the right tale for you.  This story is written for children who giggle madly while ripping the heads off of Barbie dolls.”
