Yes, it’s scary, and we have no guarantees that we’ll live to see the next sunrise. But there’s nothing we can do to stop it. We just have to let it run its course and pray that the zombies rot out soon. I’m not Rambo, Supergirl, or Xena, but I can’t let worry consume me either. Just because I’m not made out of titanium, that doesn’t mean I won’t make it to the finish line. I’ve gotta stay brave and keep fighting as hard as I can and never, ever give up hope. — Val Bennett – zombie fighter & survivor I have to keep my footing, catch my breath, and keep walking the twisting path ahead. There are many huge hurdles to face. I don’t know what life holds for me, but I will survive as long as I can, and I won’t go down without a fight. — Sammy Evans – survivor & zombie fighter Humans are a rare and endangered species. Swallowing down our fear, we must fight to protect humanity at all costs. Protecting the human race must be our number one priority. We need to fight for the future we want, not the one that’s been delivered to us. Taking back our world is a fight I will never give up on. And in my opinion, that makes every zombie hunter a very special breed of warrior. — Dean Walters - survivor & zombie hunter

After the outbreak of the zombie apocalypse, an elderly Swiss tourist finds himself stranded in America. Unable to go home, he and other survivors set up a small agricultural settlement in Alabama and defend it against marauders. After more than one year he discovers that a few European countries, although severely affected by the zombie pandemic, had managed to hang on, and he manages to return to Europe thanks to the French navy. Months later he returns to America as advisor to a French scientific expedition. Their road trip takes them to the Gulf coast, West Texas, Kansas and the Appalachians. They return with important information about the zombies and about the few survivors in America. An alarming incident with a zombie brought back from this expedition leads to one more trip across the ocean, this time as advisor to a battalion-sized French army unit. In the end the scientists succeed in finding the origin of the zombie pandemic.
