Enter the Octopus

Jay Lake Double-Take

with one comment

Jay Lake fans may have a little bit longer to wait for his new novel Tourbillon, but in the meantime check out his frighteningly original take on zombies in the new anthology Better off Undead, available from DAW. Two All Beef Patties finds a recently deceased computer tech turned zombie chef in an attempt to find something – anything – that tempts the tastebuds of the dead.  The solution is food for thought. Or is it “thought” for food? Find out: grab the anthology and devour it.

Want more Jay Lake? Well, you’re in luck! Fellow writer of the fantastic Matthew Hughes (have you checked out his Archonate books? They’re fantastic) was kind enough to post the introduction Jay provided for his latest novel, Template. Check it out here, and then head on over to the excellent Fantasy Book Spot website to read the first chapter.
