Have you pre-ordered episode #1 of this new novella serial yet?

It will be released on October 11, 2014! 

I am very much looking forward to this release! If you enjoy interesting characters amidst a zombie apocalypse, then you need to read not only this one, but Peggy's other books as well!

I read these novellas as they were released, but I am combining my reviews here because Part One is not available on BookLikes. I averaged the ratings of the individual novellas to reach my overall rating of 4.5 stars.

Part One - 4 Stars

I am a huge fan of zombie fiction, and State of Decay nails it!

I have had the State of Decay novellas on my "to-read" list for quite some time now, and I'm glad I finally pushed them to the top of the list.

This novella jumps right into the action, and doesn't give you a breather until you see the words, "The End (of the beginning)."
Though it has quite a few spelling and grammatical errors that can be easily corrected with a simple proofread, they don't overly distract from the plot.

Anna Morgan, who is legally blind in one eye, sees so much more than "ordinary" people. After dying for seven seconds, she was revived with very unusual gifts: seeing wraiths and ghosts, people's auras, and can sense darkness in others.

After reading the description, I knew this novella had to go to the top of my list. In fact, I liked it so much that I read the entire novella in one sitting.

With a unique story, Peggy Martinez wrote one hell of a novella to whet my appetite. Anna is one of those characters that you instantly care for. Though I couldn't possibly know how she feels, I immediately empathize with her and care about what happens to her. I am very much looking forward to the next Anna Morgan novella.

I worked with Peggy by editing this book. Eventuality is one of the best books I've read this year - definitely in my top 5 favorites for 2014!

Sage's journal entries sprinkled throughout allow us an in depth peak into her inner turmoil and emotions. I'm totally in love with Lucio, a new character in this series, and I think he will tug on your heartstrings as well.

Peggy writes her characters so that their emotions are almost palpable. It's a beautiful thing to feel like you truly know a character and to feel his/her pain, sorrow, elation, and love.

I have two favorite scenes, both of which happen to be in the fae realm. What a beautiful, magical place! Peggy created a world I could see, feel, hear, smell, and taste in my imagination, and I want to visit and experience the magic for myself.

Eighteen-year-old Sage has traveled from 2004 to 1904 where she learns she is a TimeWarper with powers, and she is apparently here to help with a vampire problem.

While I still yearned for my jeans and t's, I found that I didn't loathe my skirts quite as much as I had originally.  There's something empowering knowing that you'd have the upper hand in a fight because you would be underestimated and dismissed as a piece of fluff. What can I say?  I like to think of myself as a badass in a corset.
