PRAISE FOR PAY THE PIPER "A captivating triumph for horror fans." Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory "A great action-packed horror novel . . . for fans of waterlogged southern gothic with monsters that prey off the complicated history of a land and its people." Booklist PRAISE FOR THE LIVING DEAD "A horror landmark and a work of gory genius." --Joe Hill "Will play out on the inside of your skull long after you've finished it." Clive Barker "Panoramic and sweeping, a smorgasbord of the undead, a book that will give even the most ardent zombie lovers their fix." -- New York Times "A damn fun southern-fried yarn. . . it's gross, clever and a compelling peek into a community that feels left behind in time." -- Variety "The definitive account of the zombie apocalypse. It expands, clarifies, and concludes a tale more than 50 years in the telling, and does so with wit, style, and a deep sense of commitment." -- Washington Post "A zombie tale for the ages. This is a rare gem of a story, one that pays homage to its varied source material, while also standing on its own merits. A true gift to horror fans." -- Library Journal (starred, a Top 10 Horror Novel of 2020) "Every zombie movie lives in the shadow of Romero, but he never got the budget to work at the scale he deserved. Fortunately, Daniel Kraus delivers the epic book of the dead that Romero began. That shadow just got a whole lot bigger." --Grady Hendrix, bestselling author of The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires "Rejoice Romero fans! The Living Dead is a sprawling, timely, scary epic that honors the zombie tradition but also takes risks that pay off." --Paul Tremblay, bestselling author of A Head Full of Ghosts, PRAISE FOR PAY THE PIPER "A captivating triumph for horror fans." Tananarive Due, author of The Reformatory "A great action-packed horror novel . . . for fans of waterlogged southern gothic with monsters that prey off the complicated history of a land and its people." Booklist "Not only is this deliciously gruesome book teeming with classic Southern gothic trappings, it also resonates with a socially conscious message. . . . For fans of both Kraus's novels and Romero's films, this bloody Southern story highlights the strengths of both auteurs." Library Journal " Pay the Piper features many of Romero's creative hallmarks--creepy creatures, icky deaths, and under-the-surface social commentary . . . The novel demonstrates a knack for the kind of patient, expansive storytelling Romero couldn't always squeeze into his big-screen efforts. . . . To those who celebrated (or perhaps derided) Romero as the dean of the dead, the completed novel offers a chance to reconsider his legacy." New York Times "Romero and Kraus start with a fun monster-fighting book set in the swamp. While they have us looking over our shoulders, they end with us looking within. . . . Accountability, with destruction as the consequence should we not fulfill it, is the cautionary tale with the possibility of a hopeful resolution we crave." Southern Review of Books PRAISE FOR THE LIVING DEAD "A horror landmark and a work of gory genius." --Joe Hill "Will play out on the inside of your skull long after you've finished it."

Synopsis
A terrifying tale of supernatural horror set in a cursed Louisiana bayou, from the minds of legendary director George Romero and bestselling author Daniel Kraus. In 2019, while sifting through University of Pittsburgh Library's System's George A. Romero Archival Collection, novelist Daniel Kraus turned up a surprise: a half-finished novel called Pay the Piper , a project few had ever heard of. In the years since, Kraus has worked with Romero's estate to bring this unfinished masterwork to light. Alligator Point, Louisiana, population 141: Young Renée Pontiac has heard stories of "the Piper"--a murderous swamp entity haunting the bayou--her entire life. But now the legend feels horrifically real: children are being taken and gruesomely slain. To resist, Pontiac and the town's desperate denizens will need to acknowledge the sins of their ancestors--the infamous slave traders, the Pirates Lafitte. If they don't . . . it's time to pay the piper., While sifting through the University of Pittsburgh Library's System's George A.
