If you're a fan of zombie and/or apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic fiction, then you may enjoy reading/watching/playing some of the titles returned when searching Amazon.com for "The Walking Dead". Many of the search results are unrelated to Kirkman's comics/TV show/video games
TWD franchise, and instead relate to other zombie and/or apocalyptic/post-apocalyptic storylines.

That would be from this quote:

Even Closer Than the Sea and Other Stories: Strange Tales of Mystery, Horror and Science Fictionhttps://www.amazon.com/Even-Closer-Than-Other-Stories-ebook/dp/B01I8E8CEK/I think it's free today only. Covers a few genres, hopefully a cross-posting is ok.
A number of backlist horror titles reprinted by Severn Press are on sale for just $2.99 at the moment (couponable at Kobo, prices available in the usual other stores and in Canada, the US, and possibly also the UK), presumably just until the end of Hallowe'en :
- His Vampyrrhic Bride & Secrets of the Dead by British Fantasy Award-winning author Simon Clack. HVB is 4th in the Vampyrrhic series for which we've previously received the 2nd as a freebie from Endeavour's Venture imprint; SotD is a standalone involving mummies.
- Community by Graham Masterton, who IIRC is a Stoker Award winner.
- Zone by Jack Lance, a paranormal thriller apparently along the lines of Stephen King's story The Langoliers, involving a passenger plane vanished into strange and disturbing flight paths. Also Pyrophobia, involving a man who one day finds out that his life is not at all what he thought it was, and goes in search of his own grave.
- Property of a Lady by Sarah Rayne, 1st in the Nell West and Michael Flint Haunted House Story series, apparently a mystery/horror hybrid which involves the sleuths investigating murderously haunted houses.
X-link to the DRM-free thread for a new StoryBundle offering:
Military Horror Bundle curated by small publisher Cohesion Press contains both science fiction and fantasy tales of soldiers fighting monsters ranging from mythological to futuristic, and the classic zombies and werewolves and vampires, oh my!
