Isaac Marion

R is recovering from death. He''s learning how to read, how to speak, maybe even how to love. He can almost imagine a future with Julie, this girl who restarted his heart - building a new world from the ashes of the old one.And then helicopters appear on the horizon. A mysterious army is coming to restore order, to bring back the good old days of stability and control and the strong eating the weak. These grinning strangers are more than they seem. The plague has many hosts, and some are far more terrifying than the Dead.With their home in the grip of madmen, R and Julie plunge into the wastelands of America in search of answers. But there are some answers R doesn''t want to find. A past life, an old shadow, crawling up from the basement.In this long-anticipated new chapter of the Warm Bodies series, Isaac Marion expands the scope of a powerfully simple story: a dead man''s search for life in all its bloody rawness.

'I never thought I could care so passionately for a zombie...the most unexpected romantic lead I've ever encountered' - Stephanie Meyer, author of "Twilight". 'A mesmerising evolution of a classic contemporary myth' - Simon Pegg. 'R' is a zombie. He has no name, no memories, and no pulse, but he has dreams. He is a little different from his fellow Dead. Amongst the ruins of an abandoned city, R meets a girl. Her name is Julie and she is the opposite of everything he knows - warm and bright and very much alive, she is a blast of colour in a dreary grey landscape. For reasons he can't ...

'A mesmerising evolution of a classic contemporary myth' - Simon Pegg. 'R' is a zombie. He has no name, no memories, and no pulse, but he has dreams. He is a little different from his fellow Dead. Amongst the ruins of an abandoned city, R meets a girl. Her name is Julie and she is the opposite of everything he knows - warm and bright and very much alive, she is a blast of colour in a dreary grey landscape. For reasons he can't understand, R chooses to save Julie instead of eating her, and a tense yet strangely tender relationship begins. This has never happened before. It breaks the rules and defies logic, but R is no longer content with life in the grave. He wants to breathe again, he wants to live, and Julie wants to help him. But their grim, rotting world won't be changed without a fight... Hide

Una oscura fábula de amor en la tradición de Romeo y Julieta que nos recuerda que nos hace realmente humanos. "Me llevo una mano al pecho, sobre el corazón. Mi "corazón". ¿Todavía representa algo ese penoso organo? Permanece inmovil, sin bombear sangre, sin la mas minima utilidad, y sin embargo mis emociones todavia parecen originarse entre sus frias paredes. ¿Que me pasa? ¿Me lo estoy imaginando todo? ¿Es un placebo? ¿Una ilusion optimista? En cualquier caso, siento que el encefalograma de mi vida se altera, formando montañas y valles con los latidos de mi corazon." R es algo peculiar. Intenta pasarselo bien, pero es demasiado sensible y a veces se entristece. Tampoco ayuda que este muerto, o casi muerto. Se pasa los dias vagando por el aeropuerto abandonado donde vive sin saber muy bien que sentido tiene su existencia. Hasta que conoce a Julie. R y Julie, un guiño moderno al clasico de Shakespeare Romeo y Julieta, es una historia de amor que esconde una fabula acerca de como vivimos dormidos, en estado catatonico, hasta que el amor irrumpe en nuestras vidas.
