Colder Weather: A Place to Lay and Die - Standard Copy
A novel about survival in a fungus-ravaged world where humanity fades.
The story centers on Eben Wilson, a man who has witnessed the full extent of the new grim reality. He is guided by the distant projection of his former self as he navigates a landscape defined by loss. The infection has created a world where survival requires becoming a killer. This duality is central to the plot, as characters must choose between being survivors or killers. Gould uses this premise to examine the cost of staying alive when the environment itself is hostile. The narrative does not offer escape from this reality but rather immerses the reader in its relentless pressure.
Published in 2014 by Lulu.com, this work sits within the contemporary independent horror fiction market. It reflects a period where self-publishing allowed for more niche, unfiltered explorations of apocalyptic themes without mainstream constraints.
