Praise for Ex-Heroes:

"Bound to appeal to fans of zombies and superheroes alike... If ever a book had the potential for a Hollywood blockbuster, this is it." --SF Signal

"I was completely floored by this book's ingenuity and charm...exemplifies the real meaning of a page-turner." --Fantasy Book Critic

"I loved this pop culture-infused tale of shamed superheroes struggling to survive a zombie apocalypse in the ruins of Hollywood. It's The Avengers meets The Walking Dead with a large order of epic served on the side."
--Ernest Cline, New York Times bestselling author of Ready Player One

"Zombies? Check. Superheroes? Check. Awesome? Check. Ex-Heroes has it all. You're in for a treat!"
--Mira Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Feed

"A novel that will take you on a wild and heart-warming ride...[A] creative zombie story, with in-depth characters, and filled with humor, action, and gruesome fight scenes...the final clash made my heart race in ways seldom accomplished by a book."
--Wired.com

Reseña del editor:

The second novel in Peter Clines' bestselling Ex series.

It's been two years since the plague of ex-humans decimated mankind. Two years since the superheroes St. George, Cerberus, Zzzap, and Stealth gathered Los Angeles’s survivors behind the walls of their fortress, the Mount.
 
Since then, the heroes have been fighting to give the Mount’s citizens hope, and something like a real life. But now supplies are growing scarce, the zombies are pressing in . . . and the heroes are wondering how much longer they can hold out. 
 
Then hope arrives in the form of a surviving US Army battalion--and not just any battalion. The men and women of the Army's Project Krypton survived the outbreak because they are super-soldiers, created before mankind's fall to be better, stronger, faster than normal humans--and their secure base in Arizona beckons as a much needed refuge for the beleaguered heroes and their charges.
 
But a dark secret lies at the heart of Project Krypton, and those behind it wield an awesome and terrifying power.
