Rise of the Governor

Based on The Walking Dead comic books and the TV series starring Andrew Lincoln, Rise of the Governor is the first novel in the New York Times bestselling series by Robert Kirkman and Jay Bonansinga.

Philip Blake's life has been turned upside down. In less than seventy-two hours an inexplicable event has resulted in people . . . turning. The world has gone to hell and the walking dead roam the streets slaughtering the living. Escaping their small town, Philip has just one focus in life - to protect his young daughter Penny. And he'll do whatever it takes to ensure she survives . . .

Set in an apocalyptic world created by Robert Kirkman this is fast-paced, action-packed storytelling about the lengths some men will go to survive. With new characters, new storylines and with the same in-depth character-based plotting that has made the television series such an immediate success, this is sure to be a hit with fans of zombie thrillers.
