Duncan Bradshaw - Part Time Author, Full Time Loon

Duncan Bradshaw is a zombie aficionado who lives in the epic, that's right, EPIC county of Wiltshire in Southern England, with his wife Debbie and their two cats, Rafa and Pepe.

Duncan, or Dunk as he often prefers to be called, is obsessed with zombies. He remembers watching Dawn of the Dead as a kid, and being utterly spellbound with it, zombies hooked him from that moment on. He's also fond of GTA and biscuits, and wiles away his free time writing, playing video games, drinking Guinness and hitting people on the head with a stick. He also smokes manly pipes.

His Debut novel Class Three follows Jim Taylor during the first 24 hours of Day One.

"Hungover, dumped and late for work. On an ordinary day, one of these would be a bad morning, but today Jim Taylor also has to contend with the zombie apocalypse. Follow Jim during twenty four hours of Day One, as he and his zombie obsessed brother deal with the undead, a doomsday cult and maniacs in their quest to get to their parents, win his girlfriend back and for them to instigate 'The Plan'. Worlds will collide and fall apart in a Class Three outbreak."

The follow up novel Class Four: Those Who Survive focuses on a group of survivors and what it takes to stay alive in a world overrun with the undead.

"The dead rule the world. In the months after a deadly virus has swept across the planet, an eight year old boy and his appointed protector live from day to day. After a chance encounter they head for sanctuary. To get there, they will have to run the gauntlet of the inhabitants of this new world. Ruled over by The Gaffer, a group of survivors holed up in a derelict factory struggle to maintain order and stability. Inside, those affected the most share their stories, hoping to come to terms with what has happened and what they've lost. However, a clandestine operative in their midst lays the groundwork for an assault, the likes of which none of them have ever seen or could hope to prepare for. These are the stories of those who survive."
