Becoming a Zombie Series by Kassfinol
Genre: Horror – Z Literature
(4 published books) – “One book still to be published”
A series of long stories telling the tale of several survivors of a world brought to an end by millions of zombies. You will see up close the sad reality of humans and what they are capable of doing when they want to survive… although you won’t be able to deny it, you will be impressed by the behavior of these uncommon zombies. This story is set in the present-day world, specifically in the city where Kass was born; all the places exist, and several friends and acquaintances inspired and gave permission to use their physical characteristics and personalities to build some of the characters.
Book 1 Dying Before Living
Synopsis
Humanity has been almost wiped out by a virus that turned most people into killing machines. Marcos will try to survive in a world ruled by the dead. But reality seemingly always works against him.
(Story 1 in the Becoming a Zombie series)
“I think that in a zombie apocalypse we would all behave like the main characters, because in situations like that the survival instinct prevails. A novel and enjoyable story, it leaves you wanting to know more — a story that shows the talent of its author and her versatility!”
“I’m not a fan of horror or scary stories, romance is my thing, but this story is pulling me in, and since I already have the second part, I’m going to it :)”
“Used to reading Kassfinol in novels more in the paranormal romance style, with the exception of two novels, it was a pleasant surprise to read something of hers much stronger, much rawer… without pretty embellishments or lovely stories with happy endings. It’s the first time I’ve read a story of this type, and I have to say I liked it. Despite the change of genre, the author stays true to her style, and we can see (those who already know her) and recognize the dark humor and irony in her writing.”
Book 2 Killing to Survive
Synopsis
In this story, you’ll learn more about Danna García’s family situation. Though she clearly showed us she was a determined young woman, she ended up becoming a Zombie, falling into the hands of a coward just like her… Marcos.
Danna, a coward?
How could we accept that?
These questions will be answered in: Killing to Survive. Let’s plunge together into the beginning of this entire zombie apocalypse.
“I enjoyed reading and immersing myself in the story. Just imagining that this could happen gives me chills! Great creativity, descriptions and impeccable characters — a work worthy of carrying the name of Kassfinol on its cover.”
“I definitely want to read the third part, because my romantic mind is still hoping it has a happy ending. Recommended to anyone who likes reading horror, fear and all that :)”
“It seems to me it’s the prequel to the first book; it lets us know how Danna has survived and tells us her story before meeting Marco. Although it sounds strange, in the middle of the zombies and the apocalypse being lived, it’s a story full of reality. You can’t blame or judge someone who, in a situation like that, seeks to survive and save themselves, even though we already know there is no escape… Kassfinol proves with her pen her great ability to write totally different genres, and with that she captivates the reader just the same!”
Book 3 Understanding the Dead
Synopsis
Flory Chaver is searching for her sister and niece in a city overrun by the living dead.
She needs to… wants to survive, because she hopes this apocalypse will end soon. But she will realize that she won’t only be fighting all that walking dead flesh—she’ll also have to understand why, for the past few months, these zombies have been moving in an organized manner. Do these zombies live to eat? Or are they beginning to show signs of intelligence?
Many theories race through her mind, and she’ll have the means to find answers.
(Story 3 Becoming a Zombie Series)
Each book is a gem; Kass knows how to keep the reader inside her works. It is a pleasure to read each of her wild stories.
“Congratulations, Kass. I have read all the stories, and I loved them; they always pull me in and leave me wanting more.”
“When fear turns you into a hero, envy can make you betray, and you are determined to survive and understand why all this is happening… you will realize that friendship, loyalty and love can be possible even in this world… and no matter what you have to do to survive…”
Book 4 Haven for the Dying
Synopsis
Promised the chance to find sanctuary, Flory and Sebastián venture out in search of refuge. New characters enter their story, complicating their existence even further. Zombies won’t be their only worry as they fight to survive in a world crawling with killers.
Life is short enough as it is, but without food, supplies, or shelter—and with the dead wandering everywhere—it’s obvious everyone is living in hell.
This time they’ll be forced to watch as the world they thought they had figured out shifts once again, continuing to shatter what little peace they’d managed to carve out during those long, horrific months.
“The truth is, the book completely pulled me in. I finished it in a few hours because I couldn’t stop reading it. I loved being part of the story, even though I had a tragic ending, like everyone.”
“It’s a very entertaining book, strong and very human. Things happen in a way that makes you believe they would really happen like that in real life. There is a certain erotic charge, let’s say, decadent, because of the gore element, and to break the habit it’s not bad at all.”
“Kassfinol’s pen is simply a delight to read, because of her casual and shameless way of pulling us into her zombies. I must admit the Z world is not my thing and I have read very little, but based on this, even though the stories can be very clichéd, she has managed to give it a unique twist that makes this story very original.”
