Stranger Things meets Night of the Living Dead, meets Dungeons & Dragons. All set to an 80’s music soundtrack.
Sometimes the end is just the beginning…
From beyond the black…
It’s the 1980’s.
A mysterious demonic cult, long silent for a millennia-has crept from the shadows to unleash their diabolical agenda.
A radical group of terrorists has detonated deadly dirty bombs all over the world.
The Sanctity Virus- A deadly plague is killing thousands, causing the dead to rise, sending our world into chaos and darkness.
A lone survivor of an ancient, blood-sworn society of protectors calling themselves the Keeper of the Eternal Flame stands to protect our world from the rising evils of the Abyss.
A seventeen-year-old, social misfit, Warren Brennan, who all he wants to do is graduate, get out of his backwoods, New York town and draw comics for Marvel Comics.
But the best-laid plans of chubby nerds and humanity’s survival often go to hell, when an odd, overpowering yellow-tinted rainstorm has engulfed the world, and with it, the deadly virus swiftly spreads throughout the globe killing untold millions, only for them to instantly rise and feed on the living. Thus, creating an exponentially growing army of the undead.
Now, Warren, joined by close friends from school, Dex, Arnie, and Sam, a tough, inner-city girl, and a gruff, Vietnam vet, turned rock DJ fight and an odd, diminutive Englishman who shows up out of nowhere, spouting about ancient prophecies, demons and something called the Children of the Light, fight to survive the deadly streets of Rochester, New York.
All the while, a city of the undead and a sinister collection of supernatural assassins tracks Warren and his friends with one goal in mind:
Find the Children of Light.
Can Warren and his friends survive long enough to discover who’s behind the plague? Who and what is chasing them and what, or who are the Children of Light?

SOME KIND WORDS FROM REALLY TALENTED AUTHORS!
“Thom Erb puts a bizarre new spin on the zombie apocalypse that is both scary and entertaining. Lots of nasty fun! Two decaying thumbs up!”
-Jonathan Maberry- New York Times bestselling author of V-Wars and Patient Zero.
“Thom Erb’s Last in Line is a blood-soaked, nostalgia-filled blast from start to finish. Like a crazy hybrid of Stranger Things and Night of the Living Dead, it grabs hold of you with all the strength of a thousand red-eyed demon zombies, and never lets go. It’s a thrilling opening to what promises to be a terrific series.”
—David Moody, author of HATER and AUTUMN
“Erb never disappoints. This is an epic beginning to what is sure to be a fantastic series!”
-David Dunwoody, author of THE STRANGE DEAD.
Erb does not mince words. He keeps his prose tight, and on target. The chapters are taut, and packed full with character development, and ever-building tension. In roughly two sittings I devoured The Last In Line. I enjoyed the familiar setting of Rochester, New York. I felt right at home racing down streets I knew, and hitting locations I’d been to with the cast of TLIL … This is more than just another zombie story. Thom Erb has crafted a horror novel that gave me chills while I read it, and nightmares when I tried sleeping. Bravo, Mr. Erb. Bravo.
– Phillip Tomasso III , author of THE VACCINATION TRILOGY.
