electric zombie shock and roll by Johanna Gohmann illustrated by Aleksandar Zolotić
chapter 1 ready set septemberfest Fabian Starr lounges on a battered sofa in the garage His friend Zee sits beside him lightly tapping some drumsticks against a cooler Zee wears his usual black hoodie and red leather gloves He also sports a pair of dark sunglasses even though the last of the evening light has already faded from the sky 4
