EDMOND, OK, March 30, 2011 (Press-News.org) Rebecca Morsman is an Edmond, OK author whose novel, Ravenous Decay, was recently published. It is the first book in a three part zombie series, soon to be followed by the second book, which is currently in the works.
Ravenous Decay is written from the perspective of Claire, a foul mouthed, sarcastic and irreverent horse trainer. The book follows Claire's journey into a new training position in Arcadia, OK, where she meets a cast of equally dorky and sarcastic staff members of a compound-like ranch.
Six weeks into her training job an incident occurs with an injured dog from the neighboring ranch. The injured dog wildly attacks another dog in front of Claire and another resident while on a trail ride. Several of the ranch residents make the drive over to the neighbor's to inform him of the incident; however, they make a gruesome discovery, instead. Several failed attempts to call emergency services results in the residents rushing the farm owner to the hospital. Sadly, they only make it a few miles. The man delivers an unprovoked flurry of attacks on his rescuers. He vomits seemingly gallons of blood while biting and clawing at the flesh of one of the residents. An attempt to restrain him fails, resulting in retaliated violence and eventually the man's death. When calls to emergency services are finally answered, the group is told to go back home and wait for the investigators - investigators who never come.
This is only the genesis of the events to occur. Claire soon realizes that she is capable of anything for survival and for the protection of those she cares for; even if that means delivering indescribable acts of violence. She and Micah, the ranch owner, become the ranch's mainline of defense, giving everything they have to protect the animals and people in their care.
Ravenous Decay is available at Amazon, as an eBook and in paperback. It is also available at http://www.Smashwords.com as an eBook for all types of eReaders. For more about Ravenous Decay and Rebecca Morsman, go to http://www.zombifiedwriter.wordpress.com.
