The Home: A Zombie Survival Short Story (4 page)

They stepped over the corpse of Mildred and made their way to the front door. The door was still broken. But no one else seemed to have tried to go through it. They pushed on into the foyer and then out the unlocked main doors. Outside was still clear. The dead bodies from the car still lay on the grass where they had left them.

The three ran for the bus to look for a safe place. Where ever that may be.

CSS Appomattox: A Thomas Devareaux Alternative History Military Adventure

This is the first novel in the Thomas Devareaux series. The CSS Appomattox is a work of alternative history fiction, concentrating on the adventures of the naval airship commander Thomas Devareaux and his crew. 
In October 1862, the Confederacy is recognized by both France and Great Britain. Lincoln opens peace negotiations that effectively ended the American Civil War. Decades later, the young Confederacy forges an alliance with Spain – a fading empire desperately clinging to its remaining Caribbean colonies.
The Confederate Military assigns the young crew of the airship CSS Appomattox to assist their country's new ally. The Appomattox is dispatched with a token Naval force to defend Puerto Rico. Here they will stand against the coming threat of an expansionist German Empire and its ally, the United States. 
The crew of the Appomattox not only has to fight against the German military, but forces from within their own navy as well. During their exploits, the Devareaux and his crew are recruited by the Signals Bureau (the Confederate Secret Service) to battle their enemies overtly as well as covertly. 
The action takes place in the skies above the Caribbean and on land as Devareaux leads his landing party of marines to support the guerillas fighting in the hills of occupied eastern Puerto Rico. 
This is the first book in the Thomas Devareaux series. This Alternate History novel employs elements of Steampunk without taking historical technology developments too far outside of their historical progression. For more information, click on the image below:
