The late 1800's were a time of discovery and at the same time, strife. A prospector is panning for gold with his brother when he strikes a hard object while digging. He believes he has found treasure. Unfortunately, this is not the case. Instead, he's met with an ancient Indian curse. Chindi, the maker of voracious zombies and seeker of revenge.
The book takes place during a time of political unrest, with the civil war raging in another part of the country and the west trying to make peace with the Indians. A fort local to the area is working with an Indian chief to try to destroy Chindi and his mounting zombie hoard. The Indians and the "white man" must join forces to take down this malevolent spirit and save humanity, but can they really trust each other to do the right thing?
I love zombie stories and this one does not disappoint. The setting is also one that I have a long fascination with, the Wild West. Using frontier life as the backdrop and mounting tensions between factions, the author takes us on a wild ride through the dusty hills to discover if Chindi will success or fail. A fantastic story once again from Timothy Bryan. I much look forward to reading more from this author.
