Praise for Monster Planet "Glorious and grisly." --Rue Morgue "Excellent... It's got all the stuff a zombie aficionado wants." -- BoingBoing.net "An instant horror classic." --Paul Goat Allen, BN.com I've admired Wellington's short stories in such collections as THE UNDEAD and BRAINCHILD, but standing out on his own, he proves himself the real deal. Horror fans - and even non-horror fans who can't resist cat-and-mouse adventure - will be marooned happily on this ISLAND. - Rod Lott, Bookgasm

David Wellington's Monster Planet
About Monster PlanetFilm rights to MONSTER ISLAND, the first book in David Wellington's zombie trilogy, have been optioned to Stephen Susco, who will adapt and produce. Stephen Susco has written and sold over two dozen scripts and pitches to New Line Cinema, Warner Brothers, Dimension, Miramax, Universal, Sony, United Artists, Lionsgate and Paramount Studios, and has had the privilege of writing for a variety of acclaimed directors (including Mike Nichols, Taylor Hackford, Ted Demme and Philip Noyce) and Oscar-winning producers (including Kathleen Kennedy, Lawrence Bender, Quentin Tarantino and Gale Anne Hurd). His first produced film, THE GRUDGE, grossed over $100 million domestically, and nearly $300 million worldwide and on video. In Monster Island, the dead walked the streets of New York City. In Monster Nation, they spread to the rest of the country. Now twelve years later, in Monster Planet, the world is overrun by zombies, eating the living and plaguing the dead. Will the world ever be free of the zombie curse? A thrilling finale to this critically acclaimed series. Key sales points Film rights have been sold to this trilogy which has been very well received by zombie afficionados. We had zombies at the London Book Fair to launch the series which did an excellent job of frightening the book trade! |
