Our First Fiction Novel!
The Corpse War of 1793 is set during a zombie outbreak in 18th Century Britain. Written to feel like a soldier's memoir or narrative, such as those of Joseph Plumb Martin or Bejamin Harris, the story will take readers on a chaotic journey from the initial undead outbreak, through the fall of an army garrison, and ultimately end in a large, bloody battle on open field.
Why Historical Fiction?
By being written in the style of a soldier's memoir, we hope that this story will help to drive a different kind of popular interest in the history of the Long 18th Century, and encourage individuals to read from more primary sources directly.
