David Moody Ends the Hate November 8
Three years after the release of the first book in David Moody’s Hater series, Hater, the trilogy will sadly come to a close. The final installment in the trilogy, Them or Us, is already available for pre-order via Amazon.com or you can pick it up on November 8th, 2011 in bookstores near you. David Moody unveiled the cover to Them or Us on his website Monday and revealed a telling synopsis that promises to take the final book into a dramatic new direction. Read beyond the break for the synopsis of Them or Us and to get a glimpse of the cover art.
Here is the cover art for Them or Us in all its war-torn glory!
**WARNING: Beware of SPOILERS to Dog Blood beyond!**
The war which has torn the human race apart is finally nearing its end. The population has been devastated and the world reduced to a poisoned, rubble-strewn ruin. With most towns and cities now uninhabitable, and with the country in the grip of a savage nuclear winter, both Hater and Unchanged alike struggle to survive through each day.
Hundreds of Hater fighters have settled on the east coast in the abandoned remains of a relatively undamaged town under the command of Hinchcliffe – a ruthless bastard who’ll stop at nothing to eradicate the last few Unchanged and consolidate his position at the top of this new world order. This fledgling society is harsh and unforgiving – your place in the ranks decided by how long and how hard you’re prepared to fight.
Danny McCoyne is the exception to the rule. His ability to hold the Hate and to use it to hunt out the remaining Unchanged has given him a unique position in Hinchcliffe’s army of fighters. But as the enemy’s numbers reduce, so the pressure on McCoyne increases until he finds himself at the very centre of a pivotal confrontation, the outcome of which will have repercussions on the future of everyone who is left alive.
A year ago, Danny McCoyne was an overlooked nobody living a miserable, empty life. Today it’s down to him alone to make a crucial series of decisions and decide who prevails. Will it be them, or us?
Visit David Moody’s website for more information on his projects past, present, and future! Also, check out Destroy The Brain’s review of Hater here and Dog Blood here. The Hater books are high octane post-apocalyptic thrillers that I highly recommend for any horror fiction fan, especially fans of apocalypse tales. You can pick them up at Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, or Borders.
