Zombiefied! [electronic resource] : Infected / C.M. Gray

The second book in this hilariously spooky and spookily hilarious new middle-grade series Benjamin Roy is now a zombie ... well, a half-zombie to be exact. The trouble is he can't tell anyone about his new infrared vision and super-speed. Not even his best friend, Sophie. 'Cause he's pretty sure the government or the police or, even worse, his parents will lock him up if they find out. But then someone starts watching him. And following him. Somebody knows his secret. And unless Ben can figure out who it is, he'll have to start running. Or lurching really fast. Ages: 8-12

The battery

For good buddies Ben and Mickey there's an awful lot of downtime during a zombie apocalypse. Starved for contact they do their best to kill both the time and the odd undead wayfarer that happens their way. But it's not one big barricade party, either. As former baseball team mates, Ben and Mickey argue and co-exist like a married couple or more accurately a catcher and pitcher. They scavenge. They look out for each other. They even sing. Yet hope tears at them differently; so too, it is revealed, their wildly divergent approaches to dealing with the undead. Part character study and elegiac road movie traversing the haunted New England woodlands, The Battery, as it builds to an unpredictable third act explores with humour the notions of life expectancy, what it means to be alone and how we maintain our humanity.

My fangtastically evil vampire pet / Mo O'Hara ; illustrated by Marek Jagucki.

This summer is going to be epic. Epically evil, that is, because I'm going to Evil Scientist Summer Camp. No annoying little brothers. No annoying zombie goldfish. Just me, my best friend Sanj, our notebook of evil plans and my truly evil (and totally forbidden) vampire kitten, Fang. We've got it all planned out. So maybe I didn't expect for the totally not-evil geeky girl to show up, or for Sanj to find a new partner to work with, but there's no way I'm going to let them ruin my summer. Evil Emperor of the Camp, here I come!

River of night / by John Ringo and Mike Massa.

Tom Smith used to be somebody. Now he's just another refugee, fleeing the smoking ruins of civilization. Well, maybe not just another refugee. Late of the Bank of the Americas where he used to be the global managing director for Security, Tom and his fellow survivors watched New York City burn. His plan to the save New York long enough to find a cure for the zombie virus hadn't survived the bloody scrimmage between angry cops, cunning gangsters, and rapacious City officials. Now only millions of infected humans, driven mad by the high infectious tailored rabies virus, inhabited the city. But Tom and some trusted allies were able to stay one step ahead and escaped offshore. Now they're holed up in a safe house in coastal Virginia and it's time to breakout. Between him and his objective, one of the bank's prepared evacuation camps in the Cumberland Valley, are hundreds of miles of clogged roads, burnt-out towns and howling mobs of infected humans who know only hunger. He must corral his motley team, complete with middle-schoolers, to navigate the treacherous landscape. And yet he feels his odds are good. But there's always someone smarter. And they like things just the way they are. Without a fat checkbook and the team of hired spec-ops mercenaries it used to bring, how will Tom Smith fend off entrepreneurial marauders, a brilliant sociopath or two and a kill-count hungry member of the E-4 mafia? And if he pulls it off, no one is sure how they will they re-start civilization.

Opal [electronic resource] : Lux Series, Book 3 / Jennifer L. Armentrout

The Lux series continues with the fourth installment of this riveting paranormal YA series. No one is like Daemon Black. When he set out to prove his feelings for me, he wasn't fooling around. Doubting him isn't something I'll do again, and now that we've made it through the rough patches, well... There's a lot of spontaneous combustion going on. But even he can't protect his family from the danger of trying to free those they love. After everything, I'm no longer the same Katy. I'm different... And I'm not sure what that will mean in the end. When each step we take in discovering the truth puts us in the path of the secret organization responsible for torturing and testing hybrids, the more I realize there is no end to what I'm capable. The death of someone close still lingers, help comes from the most unlikely source, and friends will become the deadliest of enemies, but we won't turn back. Even if the outcome will shatter our worlds forever. Together we're stronger... and they know it.

Obsidian [electronic resource] : Lux Series, Book 1 / Jennifer L. Armentrout

Starting over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I'd pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring.... until I spotted my hot neighbor, with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something...unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marks me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and Daemon's touch has me lit up like the Vegas Strip. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is.
