Zone Yellow: An Imperium Novel (Imperium)

Zone One: A Novel
by Colson WhiteheadIn this wry take on the post-apocalyptic horror novel, a pandemic has devastated the planet. The plague has sorted humanity into two types: the uninfected and the infected, the living and the living dead. Now the plague is receding, and Americans are busy rebuilding civilization under orders from the provisional government based in Buffalo. Their top mission: the resettlement of Manhattan. Armed forces have successfully reclaimed the island south of Canal Street--aka Zone One--but pockets of plague-ridden squatters remain. While the army has eliminated the most dangerous of the infected, teams of civilian volunteers are tasked with clearing out a more innocuous variety--the "malfunctioning" stragglers, who exist in a catatonic state, transfixed by their former lives. Mark Spitz is a member of one of the civilian teams working in lower Manhattan. Alternating between flashbacks of Spitz's desperate fight for survival during the worst of the outbreak and his present narrative, the novel unfolds over three surreal days, as it depicts the mundane mission of straggler removal, the rigors of Post-Apocalyptic Stress Disorder, and the impossible job of coming to grips with the fallen world. And then things start to go wrong. Both spine chilling and playfully cerebral, Zone One brilliantly subverts the genre's conventions and deconstructs the zombie myth for the twenty-first century.From the Hardcover edition.

The Zone Continuum
by Bruce ZickThe Zones- extra dimensional planes of existence directly corresponding with our own world, and populated by an ancient race known only as the Natives. As mankind threatens its own existence with warfare and pollution, so too are the Zones affected, shrinking ever smaller as a result of the havoc wrought upon Earth. Now, the livable space of Manhattan's Zone 27 grows dangerously constrained, forcing the Natives ever higher into the skyline, and two nigh-immortal champions compete in an invisible war for dominance--but the consequences of their conflict could shatter not only the stability of the Zone Continuum, but also that of reality itself!
