Clever and daft in equal measureDAILY MAILImagine a historical SHAUN OF THE DEAD written with as many bad zombie puns as you can think of Like Monty Python at its best though, I AM SCROOGE doesn't talk down to its audience. Ranks alongside BLACKADDER'S CHRISTMAS CAROL as a great comic take on DickensTOTAL SCI FI. Adam Roberts reworks A CHRISTMAS CAROL into a zombie-slashing gore-fest. Lots of corny jokes and groan-worthy one-liners, lots and lots of brain slurping zombiesAgain.
The legendary Ebenezeer Scrooge sits in his house counting money. Marley was dead. The boards that he has nailed up over the doors and the windows shudder and shake under the blows from the endless zombie hordes that crowd the streets hungering for his flesh and his miserly braaaaiiiiiinns!
Just how did the happiest day of the year slip into a welter of blood, innards and shambling, ravenous undead on the snowy streets of old London town?
Will the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future be able to stop the world from drowning under a top-hatted and crinolined zombie horde?
Was Tiny Tim's illness something infinitely more sinister than mere rickets and consumption? Can Scrooge be persuaded to go back to his evil ways, travel back to Christmas past and destroy the brain stem of the tiny, irritatingly cheery Patient Zero?
It's the Dickensian Zombie Apocalypse - God Bless us, one and all!He has also published a number of academic works on both 19th century poetry and SF.
